A global effort is underway aiming at developing the technologies that would enable online web-based education; technologies based on Learning Objects and their description methods — metadata — as well as on the processes for their management and structuring into educational entities.
The present paper presents a system for the provision of web-based education, InfoLab: A Web Learning Pedagogical Based Content Repurposing approach which is based on the use of XML metadata for the description of Learning Objects. For the development of the educational entities it uses two techniques, the graph-based and the templates-based ones, which are unified into a dynamic synergy in the context of the description of the granularity of Learning Objects (LOs).
