The TUG engine has been constructed in a modular fashion so that it can be easily adapted for a wide variety of subjects.

We have a set range of modules which can be placed within the 'maze' to create customised courses.

THE MAIN ENGINE

The main games engine is a combination of lsl(linden scripting language) and php/mysql which peforms the following functions

- Records names of participants

- Records results and stastics including questions answered correctly, time taken, module type, difficulty etc. 

- All modules communicate with the main engine.

MODULES

By using modules we can arrange courses to suit a wide variety of learning outcomes.
