They require teachers not only substantial technical skills, but also be able implement theories styles, which are tough requirements. order general participate courses, we a novel intuitive interface graphically visualize modify contents delivered according student characteristics, based on set visual manipulators. The allows adjust study load distribution across parts course. We implemented proposed interfacing mechanism an online e-Learning system conducted user studies evaluate its effectiveness.
