Wuttke, Heinz-Dietrich; Henke, Karsten – Interactive Technology and Smart Education, 2009
Purpose: The content, provided in learning management systems (LMS), is often text oriented as in a usual textbook, extended by some animations and links. Hands on activities and experiments are not possible. The paper aims to give an overview about the concept to couple smart simulation and assessment tools with an LMS to provide a more…
