The PORTOLE project aims to produce a range of tools for tutors which will enable them to discover information resources and embed these into their course modules from within a University Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). PORTOLE will produce a set of tools that make it easy for the tutor to discover resources to support an online learning resource, and embed these into the learning environment. A key deliverable will be to produce tools that have been designed with the ease of incorporation into a variety of VLE environments in mind. The overall aim of the project is to produce a range of tools for tutors which will enable them to discover information resources and embed these into their course modules from within a University Virtual Learning Environment. The tools will be designed with the ease of incorporation into a variety of VLE environments in mind. The specific objectives are: - To encourage the wider use of RDN and other information resources through the development and use of tools which enable tutors to discover quality-assured external resources. - To encourage the integration of RDN resources with local digital library resources in a VLE environment. - To enrich the learning environment through the use of annotations adding context and relevance.
