Descripción:Each day, users look for digital tools, smarter, usable and adaptable, that make their life easier. Learning management systems with these features, are the ones that become more valuable for those who use them, but most of LMS are not flexible about the student’s specific needs. This article presents an adaptative prototype, aiming to offer the users of the LMS platform better experiences related to navigation, through adaptative user interface, using existing information about each user. To achieve that, we propose the use of data obtained from applications such as the user model, the evaluation module, the calendar and the navigation history, to adapt the user interface according to the specific needs of each user. This article proposes a prototype that can be used to achieve adaptability. It was validated by 20 users using a usability test and the results show how this prototype will be useful to them.
