Abstract:
An adaptive training system for use with an adaptive testing tool includes a user interface receptive of a field of application selection from a user. A plurality of task items are stored in a data store. The plurality of task items are organized by field of application and ranked by difficulty level. An adaptive item selector selects unfamiliar task items as training items based on the selected field of application and a user ability. These training items range in order of difficulty from items slightly below a user's ability to items sufficiently far above that level to allow for learning effects. The user ability is a function of previous user performance on an adaptive test in the selected field of application. The main purpose of the adaptive item selector is to ensure that training items are neither too easy nor too difficult for a person.
