摘要:
The present invention provides a distributed learning management architecture that is “componentized” for increased distribution and scalability. Specifically, the present invention provides an architecture in which multiple content servers, delivery servers and/or live session servers can be provided to accommodate multiple geographic locations. The present invention further provides an off-line learning architecture that allows the teachings of the distributed learning management architecture to be implemented on an individual client.

The present invention is a method, system and apparatus for pluggable simple sequencing. A simple sequencing system which has been configured for pluggability in accordance with the present invention can include logic implementing a sequencing behavioral model disposed within a simple sequencing engine. A sequencing loop can be programmed in the simple sequencing engine for mapping desired behavioral operations to individual behavioral operations in the behavioral model. Finally, an ace to the simple sequencing engine can be provided for receiving data corresponding to a sequencing informational model defined externally to the simple sequencing engine. Preferably, the interface further can include a configuration for receiving sequencing context information for processing by the individual behavioral operations.

A method of operating a content management system, the content management system including a central server and a plurality of content servers connected to the central server, each content server associated with a respective location, the method including receiving data at the central server for distribution to at least one of the content servers, accessing user information relating to one or more users at one or more locations, determining, from the user information, whether the received data is relevant to each user, and transmitting the data from the central server to one or more content servers according to whether the data is relevant for users at the respective locations of the content servers.
摘要:
Under the present invention a hierarchical tree corresponding to the learning environment is provided. When the state of a shared learning competency in the learning environment is changed, branched rollup through the hierarchical tree is performed so that all applicable nodes are rolled up without a node being rolled up more than once. Specifically, when the state of the shared learning competency is changed, control blocks are generated for each predecessor of the “sharing” nodes. The control block for each predecessor identifies the successors (nodes) that must be rolled up before the predecessor itself can be rolled up. Under this methodology, a node will only be rolled up when all necessary successors have been rolled up, thus, preventing repeated rollup of any of the nodes.

The present invention provides a novel and non-obvious method and system for administering learning objects within a learning management system. A user can select various learning materials in the system, known as “learning objects”, and can aggregate these learning objects in a special category or “learning folder” directly on the system. The user can create and delete learning folders, and can modify each learning folder by adding or removing learning objects to and from the folder. Finally, while each learning folder created by a user can at first only be accessed by the user, a user can allow other learners in the system to access the folder by establishing a “learning link” for the folder, which dictates which other learners can access the learning folder.
