Intelligent learning environment: building hybrid system from standard application and Web application

In this paper, we explore the idea of intelligent learning environment (ILE) by building a system for teaching and learning music in a Web-based environment. Our system is a framework that utilises existing Web architecture. Instead of using a standard Web browser as our client tool, we are going to develop our own. By following this, some design issues regarding the shifting and their solutions are addressed. In a nutshell, this environment allows us to gain more control in monitoring students' learning activities within a single environment while keeping instructors away from a bundle of computer codes.
