Sharing Live Educational Resources in Universal with Isabel

  • Chapter
Book cover Computers and Education

Abstract

This document describes the design, architecture and implementation of the Isabel live delivery platform integrated in the Universal Brokerage Platform. Isabel enables live delivery of Educational Learning Activities, such as courses, lectures, talks or interactive collaborations over the Internet. We will discuss both the design decisions and the actual implementation, which makes use of the new Semantic Web technologies at the UBP side and of the Internet.multimedia architecture at the Isabel side.
