Adaptive Support for Collaborative E-Learning

The project's primary outputs will be the developed methodologies and accompanying software for adaptively supporting collaborative e-learning. In these pages you can find a detailed overview of our expected results, our publications to date, and the software components we will be progressively releasing.
