Paper Abstract:
|
Realization of an effective online learning environment from all aspects of educational system is being addressed with
various development efforts in advanced collaborative and interactive solutions, standardization and interoperability in e-
Learning applications. Virtual class rooms through high bandwidth network connectivity and their integration with
Learning Management Systems are being planned in this direction. But this effort has to be taken further by allowing
access to distributed resources even at individual level for improvising learn-ability of the students. In the current
scenario, availability of sophisticated infrastructure and distributed resource facilities is not an issue. But having access to
such an infrastructure is the major concern. If those under privileged at institute as well as individual level can be allowed
to access distributed resources, effectiveness of technology enhanced learning can be improvised to great extent. In this
article, we highlight the need of service oriented interoperable learning platform and propose an overlay network
architecture combining grid and peer-to-peer technologies for building a collaborative education platform. |
