Outcomes
V3 Resource Centre
To achieve the abovementioned goals, V3 Resource Centre has been established.
Personal Learning Pathways
The V3RC allows users to select their personal learning pathways on AVI files which are supported by a logfile, holding the elapsed time and titles of the AVI sections. Viewing the ID card of a learning resource (AVI file), all the sections of the AVI are listed allowing the user to view the required one. This can be done either in the page of the ID card (works with IE) or in a separate link (all browsers). Examples can be seen in some of the above resources.
Web Services
In order to seemlessly communicate with the different LMS platforms, web services have been developed to cover the V3RC functionality. As a first step the web services allow the search and view of resources in the V3RC, but all the functionality will be covered at a later stage. If you want to see all the web services developed visit the web services information page.
