Objectives: Each learner shows unique behavior in educational environments to acquire knowledge and skills. It leads to form variant learning styles. Methods/Analysis: This paper develops a tutoring system called the Personalized Mobile Intelligent Tutoring System (PMITS). The purpose is evaluating the effectiveness of the learning style (according to the Felder-Silverman model) in rate desire users to use from PMITS. In this paper 93 users exercises by PMITS Then a questionnaire was distributed between them, and the results obtained by the software SPSS Version 22.0 and analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test. Findings: In this analysis p-value=0.000 calculated and the null hypothesis was rejected. Therefore, PMITS popularity was different between users with different learning style; Also, most of the learning style of combined was {Active, Sensing, Visual, Sequential}. Finally, this paper suggests that a PMITS based on learning style is so useful experience to users. Novelty /Improvement: PMITS can support learning styles to provide an effective education system for users (according to the Felder-Silverman model).
Keywords: Felder-silverman Learning Style Model, Intelligent Tutoring System, Learning Style, Kruskal-Wallis Test
