This paper aims to summarize recent trends in the field of intelligent education and build on the research findings to propose a conceptual model of an intelligent educational environment (IEE) along with possible applications. A bibliometric analysis explores the recent trends to obtain insights into the current research directions. The concept of an IEE is introduced and correlated to other popular concepts in the educational field. Relevant user requirements for the IEE are defined and discussed. They serve as the basis for creating the conceptual model as a UML class diagram. The proposed model gives an overall picture of the relationships among the essential elements of the IEE and provides insights into its future development. Two possible applications are outlined: personalized teaching and learning and the assessment process. Any particular application of the model to build an IEE must consider all specific user requirements and add relevant details. The proposed conceptual model can be used to enhance the teaching–learning process and improve learners’ performance.
