A design of subject model for Web-based education system

With the rapid growth of the Internet, its users and its applications, there has been considerable interest in Web-based education systems that facilitates distance education. We propose a subject model for a Web-based education system. The designed model uses a tree with multiple links. Each link weight has been derived from relationships among the concepts of the subject. The designed modular tree with multiple conceptual links has been very useful in guiding diverse students through the courseware.
