That’s just licenses but dct:title and dc:Creator make sense as well

Subject: Re: Discovering DC elements in HTML docs
Hi folks,
I've been following this discussion with interest. A couple of points stand out...
What would be interesting, is to think about whether we (the education community) could convince Google to add an 'education' section to the bottom of https://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=146898 ?
What do others think of this suggestion? Is this a good idea? Would such an addition be of value? If so is this something we should attempt to pursue?
Also
It would be interesting to think about how much of http://blogs.cetis.ac.uk/lmc/2010/12/03/oer-2-technical-requirements/ can be carried in the RDFa vocabularies currently understood by Google. Probably quite a lot.
Anyone care to work up an example?
Cheers
Lorna
Andy

Morning all
https://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=146898
is google on RDFa
http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets
is google's testing tool for RDFa markup.
I like the idea of pet format, now seeing Xpert as a zoo (we can handle lots of pets) :)

Hum, slightly daunted by the idea of being some-one's hero. But thanks for the flattery, anyway.
In the spirit of humility, I can't take all the credit for OpenLearn's RDFa work. I was guided by Nathan Yergler from Creative Commons on exactly what to put, where to put it and how to put it there.
I'm never a great fan of the "build it and they will come" mentality - surprisingly perhaps, as I think that's pretty much what we did with OpenLearn and LabSpace in particular. But in the case of metadata, I've been surprised/horrified as to how popular it is! I think it probably helps if your OER site has a high profile, and then people start asking how to harvest your metadata. They always have their pet format, so its nice to be able to give them a list of options (RDFa, RSS, OAI with DC and/or LOM) to pick from.
