Dear all, Apologies for cross posting. This event may be of considerable interest to the CETIS community.... The first International CORDRA Workshop will be held February 4-5, 2005 at Victoria University in Melbourne, Australia. CORDRA (Content Object Repository Discovery and Registration/Resolution Architecture) is an open model for building systems than can share and reuse learning content. The project's specific goal is to describe how to establish federations of learning content repositories that will enable reuse of content. CORDRA has its roots in the ADL's SCORM initiative and has the support of ADL, but the model is not restricted to SCORM content. The project is currently a collaborative activity among a number of interested organizations. The focus of the workshop is to foster information sharing and discussions among members of the international community who are working on projects related to the creation of an appropriate learning content repository infrastructure for managing and sharing learning content. It is the hope of the organizers that the workshop will encourage experts to share their project's goals, problems and directions, and will also facilitate collaboration so that the community may reach the ultimate goal of seamless access to large quantities of learning content.
