Abstract
Student modelling is an important aspect of providing adaptivity in intelligent learning environments. Student modelling techniques provide not only individualised guidance but also adaptive learning support in these environments. This paper describes a student model designed for distance education system in Maldives, which allows adaptation in an infrequent Internet connectivity environment. For this purpose the system is designed with three separate modules. The parts of the student model held in each of these three modules work autonomously with only intermittent synchronisation. To realise this technique, the system uses normal models for initialisation and updates as well as synchronisation of different instances of student models held in different locations.
