During the phases of course construction, in Learning Management Systems, a teacher can be valuably helped by system's recommendations about learning objects to include in the course. A usual protocol is in that the teacher performs a query, looking for suitable learning material, and the system proposes a list of learning objects, with information shown for each one; then the teacher is supposed to make her choice, basing on the displayed information. Here we present a Recommender System for Learning Objects retrieved from Learning Objects Repositories, that is based on a ``social teacher model", based on the similarities with the teacher in the system, and the potential model evolutions over time. The proposed system is available as a Moodle plug-in. In the paper we show the details of the information decorating the learning objects retrieved after a query, the definition of the teacher model, and the similarity measure underlying the recommendation strategy.

comment
(private-note)Teachers who work in Moodle now has a tool to recommend learning models from learning repositories. The claim is to use "teacher model". Teachers are matched to each other by experience and teaching style - so it does have teacher's model into account. However, it looks like teacher are matched by their previously selected LOs.
However, there is no course model, so prerequisites are not addressed.
