Abstract:
Learning objects are considered as educational resources that can be employed in technology support learning. They are a digital pieces of knowledge to put together in order to form courses on line. Considering cultural aspects is possible to reuse them in different context for a large diversity of community of users. Nevertheless, the design and development of graphical user interface for this kind of objects become more complex since the multiples representations and the large diversity of resources. This work proposes the use of architectural models to try to mitigate the design of user interfaces for multicultural learning objects.
