Overview: Xerte

Xerte is a suite of tools for the rapid development of interactive learning content. In developing Xerte we have sought to make it very easy to perform simple, common tasks, yet possible to create rich, sophisticated interactivity. Xerte seeks to provide a focus on the types of problems and situations that developers of interactive learning content frequently encounter, and accelerate the development process.

Xerte provides a visual, icon-based authoring environment that allows learning objects to be easily created with the minimum of scripting. Functionality that would be time-consuming to develop from scratch in other tools can be created very quickly in Xerte.

If you don’t write code yet, you will be able to use Xerte to integrate text, graphics, animations, sounds and video, create simple interactivity, and deliver it in an accessible interface. Content can be SCORM compliant for delivery in any LMS or VLE.

If you write some code, you will be able to create more complex structures and sophisticated interactivity. You’ll be able to customise the default interface and develop your own interfaces and navigation systems for your learning objects.

If you write lots of code you’ll be able to develop powerful components, extend the Xerte authoring interface with your own tools, and even contribute to the Xerte project itself.
