In this work we describe a "semantic personalization" web service for curriculum planning. Based on a semantic annotation of a set of courses, provided by the University of Hannover, reasoning about actions and change —in particular classical planning— are exploited for creating personalized curricula, i.e. for selecting and sequencing a set of courses which will allow a student to achieve her learning goal. The specific student's context is taken into account during the process: students with different initial knowledge will be suggested different solutions. The Curriculum Planning Service has been integrated as a new plug-and-play personalization service in the Personal Reader framework.
The Personal Reader Framework enables the design, realization and maintenance of personalized Web Content Reader. In this architecture personalized access to web content is realized by various Web Services - we call them Personalization Services. With our new approach of Configurable Web Services we allow users to configure these Personalization Services. Such configurations can be stored and reused at a later time. The interface between Users and Configurable Web Services is realized in a Personal Reader Agent. This Agent allows selection, configuration and calling of the Web Services and further provides personalization functionalities like reuse of stored configurations which suit the users interests.
