Connecting LearnersSmithsonian Learning Resource Metadata Initiative
Personalized learning involves standardizing and harnessing data being created about specific student learning strengths and weaknesses, and connecting those needs with appropriate learning content. To achieve this, the Smithsonian through EducationalSmithsonian, who already produces open educational content, is working to improve the discoverability and retrieval of their digital resources. We will develop complete learning-appropriate descriptions of what we have and share this descriptive language with users in many settings. Two of the most promising programs to address this challenge are the schema.org metadata project, called the Learning Resource Metadata Initiative, and the Learning Registry, a federally-created technology infrastructure for the distribution of such metadata and the consolidation of information about its usage.
This wiki has been developed to discuss the history and impacts of both programs, develop our methodology for implementing and evaluating a Smithsonian project in progress, and share results of the initiative.
This project is being funded by a Smithsonian Youth Access Grant administered by the Smithsonian Office of the Assistant Secretary for Education and Outreach, with additional contributions by inBloom, inc. and the Pearson Foundation.
