What is the Connexions project?
The goal of the Connexions project is to create a body of information and to organize this information in a way that will aid students in their learning process and help them see the connections among materials from their various classes. First, the information will be modularized so that teachers can create courses out of the repository of information. Second, it will offer a non-linear text for students. Students can use it on their own accord to pursue topics that they need or find interesting in an order that makes sense to them. Finally, by interweaving material from different areas into a given course, it will show and clarify the connections between different courses for the students who are using the system.
