Prototype of a learning objects management system for agricultural sciences (SIGEOACA). Rev. Mex. Cienc. Agríc [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.1, pp.27-38.

The objective of this work is to design a prototype for a learning object management system for agricultural sciences (SIGEOACA), as well as the corresponding repository. Both focused on training courses in the CP as the introduction to statistics for agricultural sciences. For this purpose, a review was made of concepts about learning objects, as well as international educational and computer standards under which they are designed. Next, it was described the methodology used for the development of SIGEOACA, supported both in software for education, and in concepts and good practices of software engineering. Each of the phases proposed in the development of the system is described. At the end, the database structure, the general navigation map, some interfaces and the way in which learning objects are made portable are shown. The proposed web system is scalable and portable considering the needs in the CP, as well as changes that can be proposed in the structure of learning objects.
