Multi-component Infrastructure for e-Lectures A Viable Solution for Small and Medium-Sized Organizations

摘要

e-Lectures dominate course material in many e-leaming environments. Even small and medium-sized organizations with significant constraints in budget and other resources need a way to make their e-lectures systematically and easily accessible. The paper presents an innovative prototypical approach to a viable multi-component infrastructure for e-lectures. The selection and customization of the components is discussed from the state of the art and aligned to requirements of small and medium-sized organizations. In order to measure the overall performance, computer experiments were carried out according to scientifically sound procedures. The affordability of the multi-component system was finally examined applying an argumentative-deductive analysis. The paper therefore serves as an implementation guidance in similar environments.
