Meta-data
Design for Educational Digital Libraries
Project Background

modelling approach for the meta-data level design of Digital Libraries of
Educational Materials. It is a one-year project bringing together existing
research in the area of pedagogical knolwedge represention, and working
towards the development of an ontology, a prototype Educational Digital
Library whose meta-level design is based on the ontology, and an evaluation
of the library with both contributors (i.e. curriculum authors and designers)
and users with information retrieval and learning goals (i.e students).
