Learning Content Discovery & Exchange: Activity Summary
The Technical Standards for Digital Education project which Link Affiliates has been involved with, as part of the Digital Education Revolution, is now concluding, and we are publishing the reports from the seven activities in the project on the Link Affiliates website. On the blog, we will summarise what each activity has achieved, in collaboration with our focus groups.
The Learning Content Discovery & Exchange activity, led by Nigel Ward, was intended to deal with the challenges of discovering learning content in current school landscape. Curriculum content comes from multiple sources—including the Web, publishers, jurisdictions, and cultural agencies; it is hosted in multiple places; and it is exchanged both within and between jurisdictions. To deal with this complexity, the activity was set up to:
- identify the technical requirements for discovery and exchange across school repositories and portals, and advise on standards support for those requirements;
- feed input from the school sector to discovery and exchange standards under development.
