The tutor should act as a pedagogical tutor in the e-Learning environment. In all circumstances, the human brain has amazing capability to learn and adapt with respect to the environment. Now a days, the vast and remarkable developments in information and communication technology have prompted many universities, colleges and even students to prefer online learning. Hence, if we use the human brain functionalities to build a cognitive tutor for e-Learning, the entire e-Learning environment becomes similar to classroom learning. Modelling tutor brain called the cognitive tutor should always reflect the pedagogical tutor’s behaviour. This study mainly aims at observing the tutor behaviour and how the tutor will notify the student attentiveness, monitor the progress, offer motivation and establish the personal touch with the student behaviour based on the information about the learner personalization characteristics. In learner personalization characteristics, the learner profile and the learning style have been taken to this proposed learning environment. Cognitive architecture ACT-R (Adaptive Control of Thoughts-Rational) has been used to design the cognitive tutor based on the working principles of this architecture. ER -
