Summary •  FORGE Methodology centres around transforming FIRE into a

learning resource •  FORGEBox supports the development and deployment of

widgets, FIRE adapters and course components •  FORGEStore serves as a marketplace for widgets, FIRE adapters

and course components •  Evaluation supported by learning analytics embedded

within interactive elements •  Issue around ‘always on’ requirement for learners
