چکیده
The goal of this paper is to propose a complete environment for authoring cooperatively e-learning courses using a workflow approach and relying mainly on open software and web standards. This authoring environment is based on modern technologies such as XML, SMIL and WebDAV and allows to connect a group of professionals in order to cooperatively create material for e-learning courses. The proposed environment uses a workflow to control the authoring process and helps coordinating the different tasks involved in the course creation. We show that the use of open software allows the production of a very low cost environment.
