Hi, I’m sorry for a week’s procrastination on my blog. . This three month life in Syracuse is really special and totally changed my life. Three month ago I lived a very simple life, and I was as simple as a kid. Then so much strong feelings concentrate in this period of time that makes me rapidly grow up. Although I truly wish to be a kid as long as possible, life pushes me to move on. And I’m trying my best to be mature and keep balance of my emotion, study and life. So I need to focus on my study which is the priority in my life now.
I was searching the internet for a long time about the educational technology, and found out that there are so many new technologies very interesting and useful but I’ve never heard of before. I think it’s an excellent way to learn new technologies through searching the information and introducing it. Then at last I decided to introduce the “Open Educational Resources and Tools: ATutor” which attracts my attention.
This time I want to give a brief introduction of ATutor. ATutor is an Open Source Web-based Learning Content Management System (LCMS).ATutor is used in various contexts, including online course management, continuing professional development for teachers, career development, and academic research. (Wikipedia) ATutor is used internationally and has been translated into over fifteen languages with support for over forty additional language modules currently under development. ATutor is a kind of open educational tools that is open to the audience for free.
You can down load the latest ATutor software from here: http://www.atutor.ca/atutor/download.php
