Now, digital devices are changing from a channel that simply delivers educational contents to students to a channel that continuously identifies individual learners' learning needs and provides individualized learning paths in real time. This study explores the potential for edwith, an online course education platform provided by NAVER and the NAVER Connect Foundation, to evolve into an adaptive learning platform that can be used in the future from primary, secondary, and higher education to lifelong education. We explored existing adaptive learning platforms and real-world examples from a functional perspectives, and based on that, we examined edwith from a platform type perspectives, an assessment perspectives, and an adaptive perspectives for various personalized learning needs. For edwith to evolve into an adaptive learning educational platform, it will need to move away from its current form of data collection and introduce the concepts of domains and tasks, and it will need ways to protect learners' data from privacy and misuse. In order to successfully integrate edwith into school classrooms, it is necessary to expand support for technical support services and professional development programs for educators.
