OPENET4VE: A Platform for the Execution of IMS LD Units of Learning in Virtual Environments
This paper describes a service-oriented architecture that facilitates the execution of learning units, based on the IMS Learning Design specification (IMS LD), in a metaverse platform like Second Life or OpenSim. This architecture externalizes the functionalities of the IMS LD engine through web services that are invoked by metaverse platform scripts. A software module that translates the requests of the virtual platform has been developed in order to facilitate this invocation and a virtual teaching scenario has been designed to test the feasibility of this architecture.
