Providing Individualized Support to Course Authors in LMSs Through Instructor Modelling

Learning through the Web has become a quite common and rather popular way of providing instruction. M DOCs and LMSs are currently being used widely at all levels of education for the delivery of both distance and blended learning. Quite a lot of research energy has been put during the last decade in extending the capabilities of LMSs to make them adaptive to learners according to their knowledge, needs, preferences, and characteristics. However, limited are the works that are concerned with the other class of users, i.e the instructors/course authors. In this paper, we argue that instructors should be provided with individualized feedback, support, and guidance throughout the life cycle of their LMS courses and that this could be achieved by a system incorporating an instructor modelling component.
