! 16: \textbf{A}ssisted \textbf{P}ersonalized \textbf{A}pproach (LON-CAPA)
! 17: is an integrated system for online learning and assessment. It consists
! 18: of a learning content authoring and management system allowing new
! 19: and existing content to be used flexibly, a course management system,
! 20: an individualized homework and automatic grading system, data collection
! 21: and data mining system, and a content delivery system that will provide
! 22: gateways to and from NSF's National STEM Digital Library.

! 45: LON-CAPA is being developed and implemented by an enthusiastic group
! 46: of faculty and professionals who recognize that Information Technology
! 47: can play an important role in improving students' learning and understanding.
! 48: Current members of the project include faculty from universities,
! 49: colleges, and K-12 schools in the US, Canada, Asia, Africa, and Europe.
