Abstract :
Despite the latest advances in computing, traditional paper is still widely used in learning and knowledge work. Most current learning technologies do not consider this paper-centric practice and focus on a complete digitization of learning contents, activities, and communication. This paper presents an e-learning platform that combines work with printed and digital documents. It integrates pen-and-paper-based interaction techniques that enable users to manage their digitized documents. In addition, this platform integrates different e-learning platforms providing a single intuitive interface to manage them. Finally, a case study of the use of the platform in university education is presented.
