Workshop programme
Making Learning Technology Standards Work for You! London Hilton 13 January 14:00 16:00. Participation is free, but you need to register to receive an invitation (limited number of participants)
Standards and specifications for educational content can be difficult to understand and even harder to apply effectively, especially in a world
where user-generated content and Web 2.0 tools are currently exploding.
With the ASPECT workshop you will be able to:
- Understand how existing and emerging standards and specifications can best be applied to content aimed at schools
- Learn and test how your own content complies with a range of standards
- Discover how standards can be combined in order to improve content interoperability
