Common Metadata Model (CMM) - a TE-specific LOM-based application profile Sections 9 and 10 – TEO(Teacher Education Ontology) TE specific, culturally dependent elements & vocabularies pedagogically–oriented metadata • Sections 1 to 8 - LOM • interoperability in metadata migration from/to repositories • standards-based metadata
1.2 - What metadata? addressing linguistic and cultural issues (based on an ontological approach) Teacher Education Ontology
1.3 - How are these collected? • harvested from repositories via OAI-PMH & through the Metadata Migration Facility (MMF) • created by users with help from the Resource Integration Companion Kit (RICK)
2. specialized search and tools… • multilingual interface • queries with familiar TE terms • simple & advanced query filtering • personalization functions, e.g. preset search values, ranking/sorting of search results, recommender, etc. • semantically-supported search
3. sharing resources and experiences… • ratings • tagging • social networking capabilities (groups, etc.) • annotation about resource use in specific TE contexts (profile-related)
