Introduction to Open Labyrinth

OpenLabyrinth is an open source online activity modelling system that allows users to build interactive ‘game-informed’ educational activities such as virtual patients, simulations, games, mazes and algorithms. It has been designed to be adaptable and simple to use while retaining a wealth of game-like features. OpenLabyrinth is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GNU-GPL v. 3.0) – see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html.

The original Labyrinth application was originally developed by the Learning Technology Section of the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine at the University of Edinburgh. This latest version includes work from the Northern Ontario School of Medicine, the University of Edinburgh and the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, as well as input from partners in Canada, the UK, Germany, Australia and the US. This guide is intended to act both as user guide and technical documentation for the system.

This is version 3 of OpenLabyrinth.
