15 July 2002 Introduction

FINAL DRAFT STANDARD

IEEE 1484.12.1-2002

(This introduction is notpart of IEEE 1484.12.1-2002, Learning Object Metadata.standard) Metadata is information about an object, be it physical or digital. As the number of objects grows exponentially and our needs for learning expand equally dramatically, the lack of information or metadata about objects places a critical and fundamental constraint on our ability to discover, manage, and use objects. This Standardaddresses this problem by defining a structure for interoperable descriptions of learning objects.

Participants At the time this Standard was completed, the working group had the following membership: Wayne Hodgins, Chair Erik Duval, Technical Editor Carlos C. Amano Thor Anderson Patricia Barkman Bill Blackmon Kerry Blinco Debbie Brown Peter Brusilovsky J. Richard Burke Mike Collett Ben CopelandPhilip Dodds Frank Farance Mike Fore Eddy Forte Paul Foster Vladimir Goodkovsky Martha Gray Jack Hyde Chad Kainz Ian Kegel Roger Lange John Manion Jon Mason Ed Matlack Ralf Matlack Cindy Mazow William A. McDonald Bill Melton Brandon Muramatsu Yves Nicol Boyd Nielsen Claude Ostyn Bruce Peoples Mike Pettit Tom Probert Roy Rada Dan Rehak Tyde Richards Kevin Riley Robby Robson Randy Saunders JimSchoening Kathy Sinitsa Gayle Stroup Daniel Suthers Joshua Tonkel Brendon Towle John Tyler Tom Wason Eamonn Webster Steve White Ian Wright
