[en] This paper proposes a new kind of Learning Management Systems: proactive LMS, designed to help their users to better interact online in an educational or training environment, by providing programmable, automatic and continuous analyses of users (inter)actions augmented with appropriate actions initiated by the LMS itself. We explain how to implement such a proactive LMS on the basis of a dynamic rules-based software system. We also give examples of rules e.g. to show how the proactive system can automatically take care of users and check some awaited users’ behaviors and react if these actions do not happen.
