Recommendation system for student activities based on concept maps

Concept maps can be a basis for the recommendation system for questions. One possibility is to generate whole paths, i.e. a recommendation element is a complete set of recommended content (in our case questions ). The advantage is the possibility to optimize the learning indicators or/and student learning outcomes directly in each of the recommendations.

Example:
Use a generated concept map (some are given by our code ) and implement Breath's first search-based algorithm on this concept map.
