Document-Oriented E-Learning Components
My Ph.D. work was on a novel type of e-learning platform, namely a document-oriented, component-based e-learning environment. This environment is based on e-learning components—the eduComponents—that extend a general-purpose content management system with e-learning functionality, enabling the use of a single platform for learning and non-learning content and the creation of tailor-made e-learning environments.
The eduComponents are available as open-source software and are being further developed at the University of Magdeburg. The eduComponents are a Medida-Prix 2009 finalist.
