The INTUITEL Merger is a software library that translates course information from and to several formats, with the main goal of obtaining SLOM compliant courses. This package contains the classes that evectively execute the transformations.
The software library enables the integration of the Merger features in other tools, such as the case of the INTUITEL Editor. In adition to the software library, the Merger offers a command line based client to execute the tranformations from the command line.
The overall approach of the transformations takes into consideration that different learning packaging formats have different design principles and therefore store different information. As a result, the translation from one format to another may imply an information loss. In the general use case, we suppose that the user wants to reuse the course content. We therefore propose a translation mapping tool which does most of this work automatically. Nevertheless some fine grained adjustments will be required to be performed manually (e.g. using the INTUITEL Editor or other tools).
In other words, the use of the Merger mapping tools will provide a way to create SLOM courses from existing content, but, in most of the cases, this will only ease the task of creating the basic learning material structure and some manual editing will still be required.
The Merger can be used in two different ways:
