Dear colleagues,
If you are interested in educational content and making it interoperable
and reusable within and across VLEs, you may like to join us at the 8th
CETIS Educational
Content SIG Meeting, being held in Glasgow on the 28th August 2003.
Here is the EC SIG Meeting agenda:
This free, all-day, workshop-style meeting will be from 10am-4pm, with
registrations between 9.30-10am.
The meeting will include:
* Reports on developments at IMS, IEEE and the Valkenburg Group (the IMS
Learning Design development group)
* Report on the second CETIS Code Bash (which included several VLE
products in its testing of interoperability via IMS specifications and
IEEE metadata)
* A presentation/demo on IMS Simple Sequencing, including an
implementation, from Warwick Bailey of Cambridge University
* An update presentation/demo on the JISC X4L RELOAD project by Colin
Milligan. This project is creating a Content Packaging tool and will be
also implementing IMS Simple Sequencing & Learning Design.
* A mini-code bash demonstration of creating, aggregating, storing,
transporting and presenting interoperable content through a content
authoring tool, content packaging tool, content repository, and VLE.
Charles Duncan of Intrallect, Gerry Graham of LTScotland and Colin
Milligan of RELOAD will all take part.
* Discussion on the EC SIG holding a "Content Shootout" - Gerry Graham's
idea for looking at real content and how it performs pedagogically as
well as interoperably
