Dear Colleagues,
Are you interested in the application of thesaurus construction
techniques, linked open data, schemas for structured data and working
collaboratively? If you answered “Yes” to one or more of those topics,
then the ISKO UK event on Knowledge Organization in Learning and
Teaching could be for you. It will be held on Wednesday, 7 October 2015,
at the Institute of Education, 20 Bedford Way, London. The event runs
from 13.30 (when Registration begins) until 17.30, and will be followed
by networking, drinks and nibbles until 19.00.
We have a confirmed line up of speakers:
Phil Barker (Heriot-Watt University and Cetis) talking about schema.org
for enhancing the discovery of educational resources,
Bryan Johnson (Institute of Education) presenting a case study of
updating the IoE’s Thesaurus,
Madi Solomon discussing the W3C Open Linked Education Community Group,
Peter Winstanley (Scottish Government) discussing linked open data in
careers information.
There will be opportunities for questions, discussion and networking
over nibbles afterwards. Registration for the event is open now via the
ISKO UK event page for Knowledge Organization in Learning and Teaching
