Swarm-based adaptation:wayfinding support for lifelong learners

This article introduces an approach to adaptive wayfinding support for lifelong learners based on self-organisation theory. It describes an architecture which supports the recording, processing and presentation of collective learner behaviour designed to create a feedback loop informing learners of successful paths towards the attainment of their learning objectives. The approach is presented as an alternative to methods of achieving adaptation in hypermedia-based learning environments which involve learner modelling
