  • Patent number: 6292792
    Abstract: A system and method that includes the use of a knowledge delivery computer program stored in computer-readable form on a tangible storage medium for delivering concepts from a configuration data base to a user. An author can create the configuration data base using the knowledge delivery computer program so that the configuration includes a plurality of concepts and, optionally, a plurality of problems associated with the concepts. As the author creates the concepts within the configuration, the knowledge delivery software allows the author to create a taxonomy that defines the relationships between the concepts. The knowledge delivery software can then automatically generate a pedagogy for the configuration based on the configuration taxonomy that defines how the concepts will be delivered to the user. The knowledge delivery software can facilitate the delivery of the content within the configuration to a user according to the pedagogy.
