To address the ever increasing need and challenges associated with improving the state of web-based education, a synergistic view of E-Learning and intelligent and adaptive tutoring is adapted which is the basic essence of the learner centered Adaptive E-learning Framework presented in this paper. This framework aims to provide a complete environment of online learning. The conceptual architecture of the framework presented in this paper is centered around the following core features: (1) Domain Specific Learning Services (2) Student Capability Analysis (3) Adaptive Lecture Authoring Tool and Notification Manager (4) Intelligent Assessment Engine (5) User Friendly E-Learning Portal. Altogether, this framework is truly aimed to be an integrated platform consistent with the emerging needs of E-learning and Distance Education.
