Abstract: The Multibook project of the Darmstadt University of Technology builds a webbased adaptive hypermedia teaching and learning environment for multimedia and communication technology. Hereby, the demands of diverse user groups, user levels and especially of diverse learning strategies are taken into account. Besides information gained from the interaction with the user, the system uses standardized content relations and meta-information to adaptively compile a selection from the set of available information units. A subset of the meta-information represents the compiled lesson on a high level and is presented to the learner as a dynamically generated table of contents.
