eLearning framework - Learning resource identification

OVERVIEW

Identifies learning resources. Internationally, there has been a shift away from developing monolithic and inflexible learning and training courses. The new shift is towards a set of database-driven learning objects that can be labelled, reused, searched, and modified independent of their delivery media. This is where it becomes important to label these learning resources. The term that is widely used in the industry for labelling purposes is called meta-data.
