A Methodology and Framework for the Semi-automatic Assembly of Learning Objects

One of the major obstacles in developing high quality content for learning is the substantial development cost and effort. In addition, the return on investment is often low, as developed learning materials are difficult to reuse and adapt to new and different educational contexts. In this paper, we present a semi-automatic content assembly methodology to automate, at least partially, the reuse of existing learning content in high quality and effective learning sequences. In addition, we present a case study that integrates the approach into the LAMS learning design environment.
