Data warehousing for Improving Web-based Learning Sites

Abstract

The use of Data Warehouses (DW) in e-learning applications is very helpful in assessing the students from different points of view. We can take advantage of the use of a computer based system to get information difficult to measure in traditional education. Moreover, a DW system helps us to enhance the personalization and content distribution. Depending on the user behaviour we can modify the content or the appearance of the e-learning platform to achieve the best results. In this paper we present our work related to the use of integrated DW as part of the e-learning application to help teachers and administrator in the decision-making process.
