IEEE Std 1484.12.1:2020 REDLINE pdf download.IEEE Standard for Learning Object Metadata.
IEEE Std 1484.12.1 specifies learning object metadata. This part specifies a conceptual data schema that defines the structure of a metadata instance for a learning object. For this standard, a learning object is defined as any entity—digital or non-digital—that i may be used for learning, education1 or training.
For this standard, a metadata instance for a learning object describes relevant characteristics of the learning object to which it applies. Such characteristics can may be regrouped grouped in general, life cycle, meta-metadata, educational, technical, educational, rights, relation, annotation, and classification categories.
The conceptual data schema specified in this standard will allow for part permits linguistic diversity of both learning objects and the metadata instances that describe them.
The This conceptual data schema defined in this standard specifies the data elements ___which compose a metadata instance for a learning object is composed.
This standard will part is intended to be referenced by other standards that will define the implementation descriptions of the data schema so that a metadata instance for a learning object can be used by a learning technology system to manage, locate, evaluate, or exchange learning objects.
This part of this standard does not define how a learning technology system will represent represents or use uses a metadata instance for a learning object.
1.2 Purpose
The purpose of this multi part standard is to facilitate search, evaluation, acquisition, and use of learning objects, for instanceL by learnersL or instructorsL or automated software processes. The purpose is This multi part standard also to facilitate facilitates the sharing and exchange of learning objects7 by enabling the development of catalogs and inventories while taking into account the diversity of cultural and lingual contexts in which the learning objects and their metadata will be exploited are reused.
By specifying a common conceptual data schema, this part of this standard helps to ensure ensures that bindings of Learning Object Metadata (LOM) will likely have a high degree of semantic interoperability. As a result, transformations between bindings will be straightforward.
The intent This part of this standard is to specify specifies a base schema, which can may be used to build on extended as practice develops, for instance in order to facilitate e.g., facilitating automatic, adaptive scheduling of learning objects by software agents.
1.3 Word usage
The word should indicates that among several possibilities one is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others; or that a certain course of action is preferred but not necessarily required (should equals is recommended that).
The word mat, is used to indicate a course of action permissible within the limits of the standard (may equals is permitted to).
The word can is used for statements of possibility and capability, whether material, physical, or causal (can equals is able to).IEEE Std 1484.12.1 pdf download.
