Creating interactive content with eXe learning

Source: http://www.exelearing.org

The eXe project is developing a freely available Open Source authoring application to assist teachers and academics in the publishing of web content without the need to become proficient in HTML or XML markup. eXe can export content as self-contained web pages or as SCORM 1.2 or IMS Content Packages.

This project has been funded by a grant from the New Zealand Government and led by the University of Auckland, The Auckland University of Technology, and Tairawhiti Polytechnic.It has also been greatly assisted by a global group of participants and contributors.

I really love this product. It works really simple.



You can run it directly from an USB stick without installing it. It supports standard SCORM 1.2 so you can use it in the SharePoint Learning Kit, Moodle etc etc.

In your learning products you can add a lot of functionality, like:

  • RSS feeds
  • Multi-choise answers
  • Free text
  • Objectives
  • Reflection
  • SCORM Quiz
  • Wiki article
  • And much more

The program works together with Firefox, that is already included in the program (it doesn't install Firefox, but just use the files)

So give it a try on http://www.exelearning.org !
