E-LEARNING SYSTEM FOR WEB BASE DEVELOPMENT TECHNNIQES

Abstract

My principal purpose of this project is to produce a System for the E-Learning Web Base Developing Technique for the University of Colombo School of Computing (UCSC) specially for the BIT students. Initially, a web-based interface is developed to provide a common “look and feel” experience to all aspects of the system that incorporates a series of template-based e-learning practical exercises that are accessible over a internet, network or directly from a CD. While the practical exercises developed are populated with specific examples from subject areas of UCSC currently taught at the Colombo University, generally, the templates upon which each examples are built, are customizable such that they could be used to set up similar exercises in other disciplines also.

Subsequently, extensive documentation explaining the teaching methodologies of each module and related data are generated from a set of dedicated learning recourses. These documents are genetic in nature and focus on capturing and exporting to formats suitable for integration with popular software package such as Java Script, HTML, Photoshop, Audacity, Flash and Macromedia Director and the system is entirely developed using open source software. The system can be used to develop the content and interactive handling throughout the course in theoretical & practical aspects.
