Abstract

Modern learning environments support a variety of smart learning content, such as animations, exercises or other interactive learning material. These can be incorporated into different online platforms. However, there are many technical challenges in using the same smart learning content in multiple learning management systems. We describe the main problems of this area and present our content server architecture which emphasises interoperability of smart learning content and provides an easy way for instructors to add new learning material to their course.
