LEARNING APPLICATION AUTHOR RANKING IN A MODULAR LEARNING SYSTEM

摘要

An apparatus and method are disclosed for ranking learning application authors in a modular learning system. Learning applications are stored in the modular learning system and include metadata defining performance metrics. The modular learning system also stores purchase data. Each learning application authoring user is associated with a learning application and purchase aggregation items. Performance aggregation items based on the performance metrics are additionally stored in the modular learning system, with each performance aggregation item associated with a learning user and a learning application. The modular learning system receives a ranking request from a ranking requestor, designating a set of authoring users to be ranked. After selecting the performance aggregation items associated with the learning applications in the designated set, the modular learning system ranks the authoring users based on the performance aggregation items and the purchase aggregation items, and provides the ranking to the ranking requestor.
