Using object-orientation to conceptualize an adaptive learning content management system modeling

A conceptual modeling of an adaptive or a flexible learning content management (LCM) system is an initialized step toward successful implement of a distance education system on Internet. Its aim is at planning and accomplishing the responsiveness to the learning content (re)configuration required for meeting the students' learning goals. Since learning content is composed of the relative learning objects, their (re)configurations and reuses are essential to the construction (modification) of a new (existing) studying subject (content). The alternatives of appropriately aggregating a number of relative learning objects to structure the learning subject certainly is to the success of the LCM system implementation. This paper thus presents such a conceptualization that is able to model an adaptive LCM system by defining its learning object constituents as the respectively reusable active objects represented in the nature of the object-orientation (OO) software. The aspect of the proposed OO-based active objects instruments the modeling process of an adaptive LCM system.
