What is it about?
The article proposes the use of specialized languages used in cloud computing platforms to develop conceptual models for personalized learning. This approach can help streamline academic advising services and support educational programs that combine content from different providers. The article suggests creating a multi-vendor educational ecosystem with diverse stakeholders to standardize this approach and support personalized learning at various levels.

Why is it important?
This is important because personalized learning can greatly benefit students by tailoring the educational experience to their individual needs and preferences. However, the complexity of educational programs that combine content from different providers can make it challenging to provide personalized learning. By using specialized languages and conceptual models, educational institutions can better manage and streamline the delivery of personalized learning. The proposed system, cc-coach, offers a solution for supporting personalized learning, and the proposal for standardization efforts can help create a more consistent and effective approach across different educational institutions and providers.
Perspectives
Personalized learning provided by different providers, custom curriculums, and microlearning is the future of education because it allows students to have a tailored educational experience that is unique to their individual needs, interests, and goals. In addition, this approach also recognizes the importance of increasing the reusability of educational content and integrating content at the conceptual level to create a more cohesive learning experience. Custom curriculums enable educators to integrate educational content produced by different providers into a single learning path, providing students with a more comprehensive and cohesive educational experience. Microlearning also allows for the creation of smaller, more modular educational content that can be easily reused and integrated into different curriculums. By leveraging these strategies, educators can create a more flexible, efficient, and scalable educational system that can adapt to the changing needs of learners. Overall, personalized learning provided by different providers, custom curriculums, and microlearning, along with the reusability and integration of educational content at the conceptual level, offers a more effective, efficient, and engaging approach to education that can meet the diverse needs of today's learners.
