Title

ZMS eLearning Components: Addressing key factors for the efficient production of medical eLearning courses.

Abstract (short)

The presentation will demonstrate how the ZMS eLearning Components (eLC) support the efficient production of eLearning material by focussing on examples from the medical area.

The following topics are addressed:

• Minimizing investments while immediately getting productive in high quality learning content production (SCORM, XML), that allow for cross-media productions required for blended learning scenarios, by using open source software
• Establishing production standards and work-flows, that require a minimum of technical media and programming knowledge for authoring and administration of courses and students
• Developing methods and techniques for easily integrating highly valued rich media content, such as interactive 3D graphics and animation, that can be used for realising motivating lerning content as well as self-assessmant components
• Define entrance points for publishing companies, industry, and content providers, to participate in business cases
