Abstract :
We present AXEL, a WYSIWYG editor for LMML (Learning Material Markup Language). LMML augments educational content with meta-information about its components, according to Passau Teachware Model (1999). LMML is a complex markup language. AXEL (Advanced XML Editor for Learning material) allows any user to easily exploit it. We also enriched the model with scaffolding components that would otherwise require non-trivial programming abilities.
