Abstract: Nowadays, capability development requires a flexible approach and needs to consider aspects such as internationalisation, effective teamwork and learner mobility. A learning infrastructure has been developed which combines three different types of learning and teaching. It supports the adaptation of content presentation to varying learning situations. It uses a storytelling-based framework that is influenced by parameters such as current position of the learner, device used, learner-type, available timeframe and prior actions. This system enables context sensitive and Collaborative Content Manipulation and thus, helps to overcome some of the problems associated with this type of system.

Keywords: authoring; content adaptation; content manipulation; e-learning; electronic learning; extended blended learning; interactive digital storytelling; learning management systems; m-learning; mobile learning; mobility; XBL; online learning; collaboration.
