Abstract

Basic requirements, which are imposed on LMS (Learning Management System) from the point of view of the needs of a teacher, are to present the contents of instruction, manage the instruction, communicate with students, motivate them to study, observe their progress and evaluate them. The article deals with an opportunity to implement fuzzy logic into web-based education using the created IF-THEN rules and modelling in Petri nets. By an application of fuzzy logic into Petri nets there arises a strong tool for modelling teaching processes, mainly thanks to the easy understandability and sophisticated mathematical setup, supporting a rather simple design of educational activities managed by LMS, for the compendious modularity of solution and robustness of the design.
