Outlines

• This presentation describes a solution to the
  educational systems creation a architecture and
  methodology of educational system creation based
  on web services, service agents and decision
  support component. In our project we handle the
  e-learning system as a powerful solution for
  achieving strategic objectives of the University
  and measure the impact of the system
  implementation on the performance of the
  University both in monetary and non-monetary way.

Learning theories

• The associationist/empiricist perspective
  (learning as activity)
• The cognitive perspective (learning as achieving
  understanding)
• The situative perspective (learning as social
  practice)

5
Open-source learning

• open-source courseware development,
• open-source knowledgeware development the tools.

6
Learning standards

• IMS
• SCORM
• IEEE

Service oriented architecture

• Service oriented architecture is one where
  application is cut on the pieces called services
• Each service is invoked by messaging
• The semantics of the operations are around
  business functions

University objectives

• University should attain the following
  objectives
• To have outstanding academic personnel
• To perform high-level scientific research work
• To establish efficient, innovative and appealing
  studying/training process
• To have talented students and community support
• To use University resources in most effective and
  efficient way.

Conclusions

• Web services and Service agent based
  interoperability enables the creation of the
  scalable and flexible global educational systems
• To create global educational systems we need a
  modular suite of specifications that enables
  enterprises of any size and in any geographical
  location to conduct interactions over the
  Internet.
• Learnind standards offers such specifications
