چکیده
Educational metadata can significantly assist the effective retrieval of educational resources. Currently, there are a number of tools for educational metadata authoring, facilitating the manipulation of educational metadata files. This paper outlines the requirements, and proposes an architecture for the development of a compete LRM management system which go beyond metadata authoring, supporting the educational community in the full management of LRM through the management of interoperable learning objects repositories.

Currently, there are many systems which are intended to collect, share and reuse distributed learning objects, presenting the end-user with a uniform interface to search, access and evaluate these resources. On the other hand, although a generally accepted international standard for describing educational ...
متن کاملUsing educational metadata in a learning repository that supports lifelong learning needs of rural SMEs
ICT can be a potential solution in order to cover agricultural professionals' lifelong learning needs. An application area of particular interest is the one of digital learning repositories (DLRs). These are online databases where digital learning resources are systematically organised and classified. In such repositories, educational metadata play an important role since they allow the descrip...
متن کاملeduSource: Interoperable Network of Learning Object Repositories
In this paper, we describe the approach to achieve a high level of interoperability in the eduSource. The eduSource project is a panCanadian collaborative project to create a testbed of linked and interoperable learning object repositories (LOR). Two interoperability mechanisms will support linkage of LORs. A semantic cobblestone supports connecting the LOR into the eduSource network and will p...
متن کاملFrameworks for the Automatic Indexation of Learning Management Systems Content into Learning Object Repositories
Learning Management Systems (LMS) generally offer big repositories of learning material, but the lack of publicly available metadata to describe the learning objects makes it very difficult to share and reuse these objects. If metadata could be generated for these objects in order to index them in Learning Object Repositories (LOR), the gained amount of resources could solve the sub-critical ma...
