Hello all, this webinar about the IMS LODE specification looks of
interest to those of you working with repositories of learning
materials. Yes, I know you'll probably get a "please register to view
this page" message from the sign-up page. Nothing to do with me.

The IMS Learning Object Discovery & Exchange (LODE) specification aims
to facilitate the discovery and retrieval of learning objects stored
across more than one collection. LODE can be seen as a glue
specification that profiles existing general-purpose protocols in order
to take into account requirements specific to the educational domain,
rather than creating new protocols. It proposes three main data models:
* A LODE Context Set for the Contextual Query Language (CQL): a
data model for the attributes of learning objects, which can be used for
search by expressing educationally meaningful queries;
* A data model, named Information for Learning Object eXchange
(ILOX), that organizes sets of metadata on learning objects to be used
in data exchange; and
* A data model, named Learning Object Repository Registry Data
Model, for learning object collections, to be used in discovering and
configuring access to those collections.
The webinar will introduce the LODE specification and illustrate some of
the possiblilities it offers with examples from the Learning Resource
Exchange and the ASPECT project.
