Demos

Video demos of PAWS Lab systems and research projects, organized by group. Slide-based demos should be added to the associated Systems page rather than here.

To add a new demo, copy an existing block below and fill in the details. Each demo needs: a video link (YouTube, Vimeo, or hosted file), a short description, author(s), and optionally a thumbnail image.

Adaptive Learning

ModuLearn

ModuLearn Prototype.

ModuLearn is an open-source eLearning platform and smart-learning content dashboard for organizing, delivering, and studying interactive educational modules across an open learning ecosystem. Developed alongside the broader SPLICE infrastructure, ModuLearn supports reusable course structures, configurable course sessions, smart-content launch flows, role-specific student and instructor workspaces, and research-oriented study workflows. Its roadmap emphasizes flexible integration with multiple Learning Management Systems through standards-based and platform-specific connectors, while preserving a modular architecture for analytics, adaptive sequencing, content replacement, and experimental learning interventions.
