Transformation

Before & After AI

What this workflow looks like before and after transformation

Before

All students receive the same content in the same order at the same pace. Fast learners are bored while struggling students fall behind. Completion rates for online courses average 15-20%. Instructors cannot identify at-risk students until it is too late. One-size-fits-all assessment fails to measure true competency.

After

AI adapts content difficulty, sequence, and pace to each student's demonstrated mastery. Struggling students receive additional support materials while advanced students are challenged. At-risk students are flagged early for intervention. Completion rates reach 55-65% with measurably better learning outcomes.

Implementation

Step-by-Step Guide

Follow these steps to implement this AI workflow

1

Build Learner Knowledge Model

3 weeks

Define the knowledge graph for your curriculum — concepts, prerequisites, and mastery criteria. Instrument your LMS to capture granular learning signals: time-on-task, quiz performance, content interactions, help-seeking behaviour. This data feeds the personalisation engine.

2

Develop Adaptive Content

6 weeks

Create multiple versions of key learning materials at different difficulty levels. Build a content library with: core explanations, simplified versions, advanced extensions, practice exercises at varying difficulty, and alternative formats (video, text, interactive). Tag all content with knowledge graph concepts.

3

Build Personalisation Engine

6 weeks

Implement adaptive algorithms: Bayesian Knowledge Tracing for mastery estimation, multi-armed bandits for content selection, and spaced repetition for review scheduling. Build real-time learner dashboards showing progress, predicted completion, and recommended next actions.

4

Pilot With Cohort

4 weeks

Run A/B test: adaptive pathway vs. standard sequential pathway with 100+ students. Measure: completion rate, assessment scores, time-to-mastery, student satisfaction, and engagement metrics. Collect qualitative feedback on the learning experience.

5

Scale & Iterate

Ongoing

Roll out adaptive pathways across all courses. Continuously improve personalisation models with new student data. Add AI tutoring for real-time Q&A support. Build instructor dashboards showing class-level insights and individual student alerts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, most adaptive learning tools integrate with major LMS platforms (Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard) via LTI or API connections. The adaptive engine runs alongside your existing LMS rather than replacing it. Content is served through the LMS while the AI handles the personalisation logic behind the scenes.

Adaptive algorithms can begin personalising with as few as 50-100 students, using initial assessments to gauge starting level. Performance improves significantly with 500+ students as the system learns patterns across different learner types. The beauty of adaptive learning is that it provides value from day one through diagnostic assessment.
