Nyx - A Tool for Generating Standard Compatible E-Learning Courses with Consistent
and Adaptable Presentation
This paper presents a concept for publishing standard compatible
e-learning material which is based on modular units. In order to
build courses consisting of a multitude of learning units, the
separation of content and layout is required. International standards
such as ADL SCORM and IMS Content Packaging offer a mechanism to
define the structure and communication rules of exchangeable learning
units, but do not deal with the content. This is why we present a
solution to aggregate learning units to courses, realized as Template
Content Objects (TCO), which can be transformed into different media
types with uniform and adaptable presentations. Generated courses are
SCORM compatible and can be integrated in Learning Management Systems
(LMS).
