| Abstract: | This site introduces the IMS project for managing online learning resources (people, educational service companies, content, tools and activities) under development by EduCom and the NLII initiative and gives an overview of the concept of meta-data. A detailed description of the IMS metadata specification is presented in the IMS Meta-data Dictionary which describes each field according to the ISO Standard 11179. Fields correlating to Dublin Core are "starred". The Meta-data Tool software, Forum, and Meta-data Listserv are linked to the site. The IMS project represents a major initiative for managing learning resources on the Web by the academic and other communities. The crosswalk to Dublin Core indicates potential for Web-based resource sharing among communities who adhere to common standards. |
