DCMI Education Working Group
Working Group Status:
This working group is currently active.
Working Group Charter:
The objectives of the Working Group in 2000-2001 are to continue discussion
and development of proposals for the use of Dublin Core metadata in the description
of educational resources. The scope includes educational resources applicable
for many national education communities and cross-sectoral communities (e.g.,
pre-school, K-12, further and higher education, vocational and technical training,
and lifelong learning). The Working Group will continue its work in the development
of qualifiers to the DCMES and/or domain-specific elements, element qualifiers
and value qualifiers to describe educational materials for the purpose of enhancing
resource discovery.
