Abstract

Abstract: Workflow technology provides a suitable platform to define and manage the coordination and allocation of business process activities. We introduce a flexible e-learning environment - called Flex-eL - that has been built upon workflow technology. The workflow functionality of Flex-eL manages the coordination of learning and assessment activities of the course process between students and teaching staff. It provides a unique environment for teachers to design and develop process-centric courses and to monitor student progress. It allows students to learn at their own pace while observing the learning guidelines and checkpoints modeled into the course process by teaching staff. We also report on the successful deployment of the concept and system for a university course and our experiences from the implementation.
