Hello all, if you are interested in metadata for educational course
discovery and schema.org, then you might like to join the Schema Course
Extension W3C community group,
https://www.w3.org/community/schema-course-extend/2015/12/10/call-for-participation-in-schema-course-extension-community-group/
The group aims todevelop an extension for schema.org concerning the
discovery of any type of educational course (online/offline, long/short,
scheduled/on-demand). Educational course is defined as “some sequence of
events and/or creative works which aims to build the knowledge,
competence or ability of learners”. (Out of scope: information about
students and their progression etc; information needed internally for
course management rather than discovery).
For more information about some of the work which lead up to the
creation of this group see
