Tagging Process, Practices, and Promises: Focus on Standards
2 likes3,982 views
This document discusses tagging learning resources with metadata standards like LRMI. It describes Knovation's role in coordinating with LRMI and supporting accessibility metadata. It also outlines promises that a unified LRMI standard brings, such as streamlined tagging and stimulating innovation around resource quality. Examples are provided for how LRMI could be used to tag educational alignments between resources and standards at varying levels of granularity.
