eXe

One more from the seminar,, eXe (eLearning XHTML Editor Project)

Here is the download link.. (I guess all of U from the education basic will like it.. )

The eXe project is developing a freely available Open Source authoring application to assist teachers and academics in the publishing of web content without the need to become proficient in HTML or XML markup. eXe can export content as self-contained web pages or as SCORM 1.2 or IMS Content Packages.

This project has been funded by a grant from the New Zealand Government and led by the University of Auckland, The Auckland University of Technology, and Tairawhiti Polytechnic. It has also been greatly assisted by a global group of participants and contributors.

eXe was named a finalist in the New Zealand round of the IMS Global Learning Impact Awards, automatically entering it in the 2008 international competition.

The eXe project aimed to foster collaborative development involving a representative group drawn from the New Zealand tertiary sector. Strategic direction and feature development have essentially been guided by this group. The decision to develop eXe as an Open Source initiative offered the development a number of benefits. A major benefit with taking this decision has been the ability to tap into the extensive global developer community which is constantly driving the development of new technologies.

Releasing developments frequently through the Eduforge development project site has seen serious interest generated from the wider global elearning development community who have keenly tested and offered support and advice on the software throughout its development to date.
