IBook: Interactive and Semantic Multimedia Content Generation for eLearning

Over the years the World Wide Web has seen a major transformation with dynamic content and interactivity being delivered through Web 2.0 and provision of meaning to Web content through the Semantic Web. Web 2.0 has given rise to special methods of eLearning; we believe that interactive multimedia and semantic technologies applied together can further enable effective reuse of such applications thereby taking eLearning a step further. As proof of this idea we present IBook which is an eLearning application that uses concepts from both the fields of Web 2.0 and Semantic Web. It presents multimedia in a form that enhances the user’s learning experience through the use of Web 2.0 and Semantic Web.
