Overview

Connexions is a web-based document creation and management system

for education and research materials. There are two parts to

Connexions: a Content Commons that contains these materials and

the software tools necessary to create, manage, and access these

materials. A tour

of the workings of Connexions and its parts appears on the Connexions

web page, under the "About" tab.

From its inception, Connexions was designed to allow the

collaborative development and free availability of material.

Instructors and authors can modify this material for any

educational purpose. Connexions offers Free/Open Source software

tools to help students, instructors, and authors manage these

information assets for sharing and advancing knowledge to

benefit the global educational community. All of this is

accomplished through the use of the

Creative

Commons Attribution license.

There are three general categories of Connexions users:

* Students - who use Connexions to access information on-line,

to prepare for their classes.

* Authors - who enter content into Connexions in document

files called modules.

* Instructors - who build courses, which are documents created

by linking related modules together in a specific order.
