"Persuasive Learning Objects and Technologies" and Moodle

In short, a persuasive learning object is a SCORM-compliant learning object that encourages and motivates the learner during the learning process. It is adaptive to a user's responses and in my own words, nudges the learner along the path of achieving the learning outcomes of the LO (Learning Object).
Europlot is one of the organisations helming this European collaborative effort. And guess what, PLOTs can be embedded inside a Moodle course.

One of their projects involves teaching Hebrew and Greek Bible texts.

Has anyone heard of this?
