Abstract: In this paper we target the limited capacity of the human memory while developing adaptive educational hypermedia systems. We discuss implications of remembering and forgetting for the adaptive hypermedia systems development. The forgetting is characterized as a consequence of time passed between two learning events. Knowledge from psychology is used for stating implications of the human memory properties for an improvement of the adaptive learning systems. An experimental implementation of the model of remembering and forgetting is described.
