Efficient e-learning services

Abstract

The contribution deals with the architecture of the eEDUSER portal (eEDUSER - ”Efficient E-Learning Network Services Establishment for Education without Borders”, project within Leonardo da Vinci Programme). It analyses the concrete aims and functionality of the portal. The portal offers innovative Internet based asynchronous and synchronous education services incl. videoconferencing sessions. It supports exchange of knowledge, case studies, training, FAQs, troubleshooting, organization of ODL on international level and solves problems of integration, interoperability and internetworking of distributed e-learning resources. The leading idea behind the project eEDUSER is to benefit from the synergic effect caused by integration of various technologies, technical platforms, application domains and services and international distributed educational resources in order to provide an open and interoperable environment. The paper describes the principles of the management of available learning resources, communication possibilities provided by the virtual collaboration rooms, used technologies and standards applied during the development of the portal.
