ABSTRACT=Student modeling is a fundamental aspect in customized learning environments. It enables unified representation of students' characteristics that supports creating personalized learning experiences. This paper aims to build an effective student model by combining learning preferences with skill levels. A student profile is formulated upon detecting the user's learning styles and learning preferences, as well as their knowledge level and misconceptions. The pieces of information are collected through an interactive online platform, by completing personal and knowledge assessment quizzes. Moreover, a learner can make his/her profile open for other learners as a starting point for supporting collaborative learning. The evaluation of this platform showed promising results regarding its ability in describing students in a comprehensive manner. Where the satisfaction level reported by users was averaged as a score of 90%.
