Abstract: A method includes receiving data associated with a characteristic of a set of students from a educational delivery system. The characteristic can include, for example, a demographic characteristic, a geographical location, a score of an assessment associated with a learning objective from the plurality of learning objectives, a time to complete the assessment, a number of attempts to complete the assessment and/or an indicator of knowledge of the learning objective based on prior educational experience. A first group of students and a second group of students are automatically selected from the set of students based on the data such that first group of students is substantially identical to the second group of students. A first educational material is delivered to the first group of students. A second educational material is delivered to the second group of students.

Abstract: A method includes arranging a plurality of learning objectives to define a learning objective sequence of an educational material. Each learning objective from the plurality of learning objectives is associated with a content including at least one of a learning object, an assessment or a teaching strategy item. A temporal content is inserted into the learning objective sequence at a position within the learning objective sequence based on a time associated with the presentation of the temporal content to a user. The time can include, for example, a date of a holiday, a number of times the user has logged in, or the like. An educational material including the content associated with each learning objective from the plurality of learning objectives and the temporal content is produced. The content and the temporal content are arranged to define at least one learning path within the learning objective sequence.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a first datum associated with a student's knowledge of a first learning objective and a second datum associated with a profile of the student, a request by the student and/or the student's knowledge of a second learning objective associated with the first learning objective. The first datum can be, for example, the student's score on assessment items related to the first learning objective. A subset of educational content from a plurality of educational content associated with the first learning objective is selected based on the first datum and the second datum. The subset of educational content includes at least one of a learning object, and assessment or a teaching strategy item. An educational material including the subset of educational content is produced. The subset of educational content is arranged to define a learning path associated with the student.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method includes selecting a subset of learning objectives from a plurality of learning objectives. Each learning objective from the plurality of learning objectives is associated with a content including at least one of a learning object, an assessment or a teaching strategy item. The subset of learning objectives is arranged to define a learning objective sequence. An educational material including the content associated with each learning objective from the subset of learning objectives is produced. The content is arranged to define at least one learning path within the learning objective sequence.

Abstract: A method includes identifying at least one learning objective from a plurality of learning objectives associated with an educational material. A subset of assessment items from a plurality of assessment items is selected. Each assessment item from the plurality of assessment items is associated with the at least one learning objective. The selecting is performed based on at least one of a type of assessment item, a format of assessment item or a difficulty of assessment item. An assessment including the subset of assessment items is produced.

Abstract: A method of publishing an educational material includes receiving a first datum associated with a plurality of functional characteristics associated with a content of an educational material. A second datum associated with a capability of a delivery system to execute the plurality of functional characteristics associated with the content is received. A third datum (e.g., a validation report) associated with a difference between the plurality of functional characteristics associated with the content and the capability of the delivery system is produced. The educational material is then produced based on the third datum such that a plurality of functional characteristics associated with the resulting educational material corresponds to the capability of the delivery system.

Abstract: A computer system for delivering an educational material includes a delivery engine, a feedback engine and a notification engine. The delivery engine is configured to deliver to a student a portion of the educational material, including the content arranged to define a set of learning paths associated with a learning objective. The portion of the educational material includes a subset of the content associated with a subset of the set of learning paths. The feedback engine is configured to receive a datum associated with a number learning paths within the subset of the set of learning paths. Said another way, the datum represents the number of learning paths received by a student. The notification engine is configured to produce a notification in response to the datum.
