In context-aware ubiquitous learning environment, finding out an optimal learning path for each student in real time to maximize
the learning performance is important. In addition, many studies also indicated and confirmed that personalization is effective in improving the learning efficacy of students. Although the issue of
personalized navigation support has been widely discussed in elearning, it is still under investigated in ubiquitous learning
environment. This paper proposes a personalized navigation
strategy based on the Learning Orientation Theory. The strategy will guide the learners in context-aware ubiquitous learning
environment by their learning orientation. To fulfill the proposed strategy, three navigation modes, namely Hyper-linear
Navigation, Semi-linear Navigation, and Linear Navigation are developed for Transforming, Performing and Conforming learners respectively. A personalized navigation support system that includes the three navigation modes is also implemented. A preliminary experiment is conducted and the survey shows that most of the students are satisfied by our proposed system.
