leading companies in Intelligent Systems and organisations that manage multi-national school computer network systems. The main goal is to constitute the infrastructure of an intelligent system that can deliver varying education materials at varying levels background and learning, type and requirements per each user in compliance with European Standards.
iCLASS Project is divided into many sub-projects, each with different requirements, design and technological development, constituting the interdependent parts of the iCLASS system.
The most pressing problem in e-learning involves the generation of educational content-and its usability-by automated, intelligent systems. The role of RtB, which has a specialized staff for the design of content, is to ensure the preparation of concept and ontological maps, a major pillar of the iCLASS infrastructure, and the formation of multimedia content products in the e-learning system. RtB will also provide organisation for the training of teachers and administrators of schools who will use this e-learning system in their schools and classrooms, or students at home.
