Technology Integrated Learning Environment - A Web-based Distance Learning System

This paper analyses the requirements of a third-generation technology integrated learning environment. The architecture proposed is analysed in terms of the generic constraints of a general distributed system, such as performance, scalability and security issues. We have also considered the pedagogical issues and the modes of use in which a student is likely to access the educational material. The result of this analysis is an architecture that will scale well with numbers of students and will be able to support a variety of emerging pedagogical models.
