ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to delivering adaptive content to a user via a user output device, typically a computer. In general, user information associated with a particular user is retrieved and activity selection and topic selection information are received. A set of one or more questions is retrieved based upon the selected topic and the user information. The retrieved question set is presented to the user in the context of interacting with the selected activity. Progression through the selected activity results from successfully answering the questions. In some instances, questions may be evaluated for bias with respect to particular user group(s). Further, certain embodiments may support assignment of particular topics, questions and/or activities to particular users or user groups. Facilities may also be supported for aiding users in developing and/or expanding the available questions, topics and/or activities.
