A New Education Framework within IMS-Specifications

摘要

Educational Institutions have been using the World Wide Web for a long time in the provision of education. Currently we can observe a growing knowledge complexity and a widening variety of backgrounds and qualifications. As a consequence, we need modularly structured contents, which are linkable across subject domains and support different kinds of usages. However, the demanding requirements for comprehensive and flexible educational services clash with the complexity of its development. To alleviate this tension, the IMS Project proposes a generic architecture for online learning based on extensibility and composability of its components.
