Abstract
Authoring tools are widely accepted to be one of the most promising approaches to increase the widespread uptake of Adaptive Educational Hypermedia (AEH). AEH authoring tools have however not been as successfully adopted as was initially expected. This paper presents a clearly defined set of comprehensive training steps devised to increase the accessibility of AEH authoring tools. The objective of these training steps is to insure AEH authoring tool users have a clear understanding of how personalization will affect and benefit their courses. The paper includes an evaluation of the presented training steps.
