Abstract

An attempt is made to integrate the EduLearn Learning Content Management System (LCMS) components with comparable Learning Objects Repository (LORs), specified in Peer to Peer (P2P) architecture to provide a better framework for sharing Learning Objects.

Learning Content Designers need to be able to access a suitable learning object. For this the Learning Object needs to reside in an LOR which has the capacity to cater quickly to the needs of the Learning Content Designer.

Reuse of a Learning Object is possible only if it is available easily and it is designed in a standard format. Such a reusable learning object (RLO) has the ability of being reused in different learning contexts and for various objectives.

We have proposed a new framework for more efficient e-learning environment by using P2P architecture and Semantic Overlay Network. This will help in efficient management of LCMS components and improve the performance of LCMS through the RLO.

Our framework authenticates Learning Object Repositories and provides a better load balance for the framework using P2P technology.
