Irecomendyou: A design proposal for the development of a pervasive recommendation system based on student’s profile for Ecuador's students' candidature to a scholarship

Abstract:

All recognized successful Ecuador’s students have the opportunity to apply for a scholarship abroad within a set of relevant world’s universities listed on-line on SENESCYT’s website. Students are invited to choose from a list with more than 1500 universities. From those, they only have no more information than each university general URL address. Considering student’s limitation to compare and analyze all available courses it is frequent to exist students that complaint about their selection due their capacity to understand all available possibilities. Along this work we develop a proposal design for a pervasive recommendation system based on students’ profile for scholarship’s application based on their profile and universities programs’ main characteristics.
