Abstract :
This paper presents our work on netUniversity Web portal, an easy and competitive solution for creating and managing pedagogical content as online courses. netUniversity offers a wide diversity of pedagogical models that assure the best adaptation of the course to the chosen pedagogy and learning style, based on the IMS-learning design. netUniversity gives teacher the possibility to edit his own pedagogical scenarios which allows to adapt the displayed learning content according to intellectual and cognitive level of learners.In addition, netUniversity contains a transformation mechanism that guaranties the reusability and extensibility of the educative contents, as well as, the interoperability of the hypermedia systems.It contains, also, a set of generators, which allows to create a diversity of collaborative learning tools.
