This paper shows a way of using sensing-intuitive dimension of learning styles of students in order to improve the efficiency of adaptive learning systems. Firstly, it introduces the procedure of extracting information about sensing-intuitive students from the Felder-Soloman ILS questionnaire. Then, it presents a mechanism of application of sensing-intuitive dimension to exposition-exemplification sequencing. The example used to explain the adaptation effects is taken from a chess course developed with TANGOW, Task-based Adaptive learNer Guidance On the Web.
