This paper discusses the design and development of a framework which can be used to create
|
|
|
|
interactive tutorials running inside Docker containers, semi-automatically showcasing various
|
|
|
|
IT topics in real time. The user is guided through exercises using real environments with
|
|
|
|
real software, all with the possibility of interaction at any time.
|
|
|
|
This technology can supplement/improve the way e-learning is usually done today

Currently more than 60 learning exercises based on this framework are available on
|
|
|
|
the e-learning platform called Avatao, with more being released every week.
|
|
|
|
This text is going to justify the need for such technology, explain the ideas leading

to it, discuss use-cases, architecture, the features of the framework and how

|
developers can use it to create learning exercises.
