Abstract

Dynamic adaptive hypermedia is a technological approach that adapts the content and presentation of information according to the needs and preferences of each learner, according to their learning style which is the way they prefer to receive, process, and assimilate information. This chapter consists of examining how to integrate learning styles in the development of a dynamic adaptive hypermedia system in online teaching and exploits its richness to improve the effectiveness of online teaching, To this end and to contribute to the development of a structure based on the learning styles of a dynamic adaptive hypermedia for online teaching, vary depending on the specific implementation of the characteristics of the learner which makes it possible to evaluate learning styles for personalized adaptation by valuing the impact of adapting learning styles on learning outcomes, knowledge retention, and learner satisfaction.

Theoretical Framework

Exploring online teaching through dynamic and adaptive hypermedia and the key concepts of learner learning that learning styles present in a time when content is vast and diverse is a work that requires major interest. So adapting the content and navigation to the learners' style is topical work, since it gives the desire to motivate and explore the ability that each learner possesses. The chapter is spread over a theoretical framework that includes an in-depth analysis of different learning styles and more specifically Felder Silverman's vision of how these styles influence the way learners acquire and process information. This makes it possible to use this information to design an adaptive pedagogical approach, to create flexible learning paths that adjust to learners' individual preferences and needs according to their learning style and hypermedia that integrates interactive elements, varied content (texts, videos, audios, etc.) and adaptability mechanisms to provide personalized content to learners. This structure requires an approach, combining elements of learning psychology, educational technologies, user experience design, and pedagogy to create an effective and adaptable structure.
