Terms Relating to the TAO Architecture

Summary

To sum up the terms covered in this chapter, George can construct the various components he needs for his assessment on the canvas, and then store them in the relevant classes of the appropriate libraries. He can use the properties to define certain information about these components. He may need to install extra extensions, depending on what he wants to put in his assessment.

The image below shows the Library of test items on the left. In it, there is a Class called ‘Capitals of the World’, which contains already existing items he might want to use in his assessment. The Canvas is in the middle of the screen, ready for George to continue preparing his assessment. He will need to define the properties pertaining to the characteristics of the item in the gray box on the Canvas.  He may or may not need to install extra extensions.
