DCMI Education Working Group
Working Group Status:
This working group is inactive under this charter. [Current
Working Group Charter]
Working Group Charter:
The objectives of the working group are to discuss and develop
a proposal 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., K-12, further and higher education and lifelong
learning).
The working group will develop qualifiers and/or extensions to
the Dublin Core element set that will describe educational material
for the purpose of enhancing resource discovery. It is expected
that the resulting metadata will include educational qualifiers
that fall within the scope of existing Dublin Core elements and
potentially some that are specific to the domain of education.
