A generic architecture of an affective recommender system for e-learning environments

Personalization of suggestions of contents plays a key role in adaptive virtual learning environments. Good recommendations can raise the interest of students in the learning process, while, on the other hand, bad recommendations can have catastrophic results for the learning process. The affective...
