Introduction The paper presents how meta-modelling concept and technology allowing creating custom meta-models for a modelling tool can be applied in the area of technology enhanced learning specifically in the design of learning activity sequences and assessment/appraisal methods summarized in the approach called “Evidence Centered Activity and Assessment Design” – ECAAD. The term “model” is understood as described in [Reimann, 2012] as semantically-rich, graphical representation of a real-world system-under-study, ” that on one hand provides means of externalization, visualization of knowledge of the domain user and on the other hand is interpretable by machines/programmatically. The model-based approach as introduced below should support learners and teachers in their knowledge-intense planning, design and specification task for the 21st century, technology-rich classroom to allow for knowledge sharing, collaboration among domain experts and operationalization of the created artefacts. The modelling approach is described in the following from technical perspective as researched and developed in course of the European Commission co-funded project NEXT-TELL project [NEXT-TELL, 2013, www.next-tell.eu] specifically focusing on the underlying metamodelling concepts and technologies as a realization framework for highly flexible solutions in the area of ECAAD.
