By introducing the concept of Cloud Computing, the architecture of e-Learning has been changed, So, we propose an autonomous learning support system that encourages learners’ interaction by “the Architecture of Participation”. We developed learning management system based on SNS. This system has two models that describe 1) learner’s acquired knowledge, and 2) learner’s participatory attributes....

Purpose – With academic institutions’ adoption of Course/Learning Management Systems (CMS), librarians are increasingly providing content through this delivery method. This study aims to identify practical information for librarians considering CMS content development or re-evaluation of online offerings. Design/methodology/approach – Academic libraries with health sciences information literacy...

The concept of Learning Objects has been introduced in the e-learning field to enhance the accessibility, reusability, and interoperability of learning content. Despite intensive international standardization, learning content and its management still needs more detailed specifications for the implementation of a Learning Objects based system. This paper proposes strategies that a Learning Cont...

This work presents an XML-based authoring methodology that facilitates the different tasks associated with the development of standards-compliant e-learning content development. The idea is to support a unified authoring process of adaptive e-learning content by adopting the manual writing metaphor. According to this metaphor, which is specially well-suited for technical domains, instructors ar...

Website design practice has evolved a lot. Websites are no longer designed from scratch but based on existing designs and patterns, and very often they are implemented using Web Content Management Systems (WCMS). Given all this support, it seems that the traditional web design methods, developed in the past, are no longer relevant. However, we argue that they still have a role to play, but they...

But actually, many sites consist of much more than this. Interactions and services for the users are common enough. Personalised sites tailor their content to specific users or user gro...

The paper presents an architecture for enterprise development of eLearning content. The authoring studio is intended to work alone or as an integrated part of learning content management system in conjunction with the presented adaptation engine. The content organisation that facilitate development and repurpose of educational content is offered, by definition of granularity, structure, support...

Not only is the resulting content chaos inefficient, it brings with it a number of risks. However, information that is contained in unstructured documents is increasingly becoming a key business resource. Enterprise content management (ECM) is used to manage unstru...
