Embodiment Construction

[0017]FIG. 1 shows an architecture incorporating an embodiment of the present invention. The architecture includes an e-learning system 2, 4 for delivering one or more learning resource 6 to common group of users 8. The system includes a learning resource system, also referred to as a content server, 2, for storing the one or more learning resource for delivery to at least one of the common group of users at one or more user terminals 8. The one or more user terminal 8 typically comprises a processor and a storage device 8a, for example, a hard drive. To interact with a user, the user terminal may comprise a keyboard and pointing device 8b, or the like and a display, for example, a monitor including a screen. The user terminal may be a desktop unit. Alternatively, it may be a handheld device, or the like, such as a laptop computer, etc. Data may be exchanged between the processor and the storage device in the hard drive. It may also be exchanged between the keyboard and the display ...

Abstract

An e-learning system and method for delivering one or more learning resource to a common group of users at one or more user terminals, the system including: a learning resource server for storing the one or more learning resource for delivery to at least one of the common group of users at one or more user terminals, an administration server, arranged to serve the common group of users at the one or more user terminals, a system and method for tracking and maintaining meta data for describing the learning resource in accordance with the common group of users' requirements.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The invention relates to an e-learning system and a method of e-learning. BACKGROUND INFORMATION [0002] Systems and applications for providing e-learning, also referred to in the art, inter alia, as computer based training, computer assisted instruction and technology supported learning, are known. Such applications and systems use content, for example, lectures and book chapters, which are delivered to users electronically. In order to describe the e-learning content, meta data is associated with the content. XML (extensible mark-up language) based standards is one technology, which is conventionally used to define meta data. It has been found when certain meta data formats are used, tracking the meta data in these formats is problematic. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] It is an object of the present invention to address the problem of tracking meta data in e-learning systems. [0004] According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided an e-...
