The main goal of this research is to build an enhanced learning environment for e-learner using the cognitive architecture ACT-R(Adaptive Control of Thought—Rational) [7,8]. This proposed new intelligent learning environment is applied to manage and monitor the dynamic behavior of the learner and capture the learner’s emotional status like active, high arousal, displeasure and sleepy mood. This intelligent architecture will modulate the learning content based on the emotional status of the learner. So that learner’s emotional status is also included in E-learning which is similar to the pedagogical method where the teacher can understand the general mood of learners and modulate the method of delivery. The model that we have developed for the subject System Software has proved that the learner’s outcome is better in our model than some of the other existing models. We have also included learner’s behavioral history as feedback to our system for the further improvement of the learning process.
