Abstract:
In last decade, more and more platforms for elearning
content delivery provide adaptability towards
learners goals, styles and performance. Usually, such
platforms rely on own authoring tool or use external
one in order to create learning materials. Usually,
these tools follow modern e-learning standards but are
rather complicated to be used and miss
interoperability features. In this paper, we present
software construction of an authoring tool, which is a
part of a platform for building edutainment (education
plus entertainment) services – ADOPTA (ADaptive
technOlogy-enhanced Platform for eduTAinment). This
authoring tool is designed by using Java EE 5 platform
and provides inheritance mechanisms for learning
object metadata descriptions, metadata for semantic
ontology graphs, and good integration with instructor
tool for creation of adaptive courseware.
