Metadata and Knowledge Management Driven Web-Based Learning Information System Towards Web/E-Learning 3.0

Abstract

[EN] AHKME e-learning system main aim is to provide a modular and extensible system with adaptive and knowledge management abilities for students and teachers.This system is based on the IMS specifications representing information through metadata, granting semantics to all contents in it, giving them meaning. Metadata is used to satisfy requirements like reusability, interoperability and multipurpose. The system provides authoring tools to define learning methods with adaptive characteristics, and tools to create courses allowing users with different roles, promoting several types of collaborative and group learning. It is also endowed with tools to retrieve, import and evaluate learning objects based on metadata, where students can use quality educational contents fitting their characteristics, and teachers have the possibility of using quality educational contents to structure their courses.
