4.7 Material delivery 4 HEAT 4.7 Material delivery The final step in the authoring process is the delivery of the educational material to the student. Up to this point, this PhD project has dealt with the separation of the educational and the technical content in educational hypermedia. It becomes now important to know how the educational material is actually delivered and how this is done technically. First of all, the author creates the educational material he wants to deliver as de- scribed in 4.8. When the author produces the authored EM, it is automatically stored in the content space and the educational material is specifically transformed into a WWW based format. Depending on the EM created by the author, a start page is created which func- tions as an entrance point for the student to begin his way through the module. Additionally, the student’s further navigation through the EM is supported by the created material based on the linkage of the material in the HEAT. To achieve the needed transformation of the educational material into the WWW based form it was necessary to undertake the following technical implementation. The connection of XML files with XSL files is one of the important developments of this PhD. The implementation had to address these issues: • The XML file had to be interpreted and displayed to the student by Internet Explorer. • The specialised XSL files had to be created. • The functionality of the Java Script within the XSL files had to be imple- mented. • Whenever the material is accessed the XSL files are interpreted by the web browser and displayed to the student. • The XSL files can be programmed in various ways that meet exactly the specific requirments for the correct presentation of the respective material to the student. This is a further proof of the successful application of the 110
4.7 Material delivery 4 HEAT concept of separation of educational and technical content in educational hypermedia. • The XSL files can be inserted into the HEAT/XEML-framework dynami- cally. This guarantees the further extensibility of the framework. Some examples of the XLS files developed during this PhD project can be re- viewed in Appendix A.5. After the material is delivered to the user via a material delivery interface, inter- actions of the user with the material delivery system can be saved and analysed. Using the results of this analysis the educational material can be adapted to the student’s needs. The information about the student’s preferences can even be transferred between educational systems using a n-dimensional framework [176]. However, this last step is regarded as out of scope for this PhD. 111
