Today popular learning management systems (LMS) lack interactivity. Interactivity is very important in the learning process, because it‘s a great mean of interest and motivation. The level of interactivity could be increased by using scripts, but some of the modern scripting languages are not universal, and the majority are too hard to comprehend for non-IT specialists. That’s why a brand new scripting language has been created. It can be integrated to an open-source PHP based LMS and because of it‘s simplicity and usage of native language in syntax is rather easy to learn for non-IT staff. Experiments showed that it‘s rather convenient, compared to other similar languages and it’s speed does not slow down the process of webpage generation to an extent a user would notice. It’s also capable of performing basic mathematical and other scientific task modeling, making the language sufficient for common use. The script language has some of the complex template language properties, so it can be also used as a tool of managing content rendering. Practical integration of the script language with “Google Maps” service and VRML showed that it can be expanded to the required extent. Further works with this language may include expansion of syntax and implementation of AJAX technology.
