XSD Data File Information ========================= Author: IMS Global Date: 27 April, 2020 Version: 1.0 Status: Final Description: This is the K12 profile of the Thin Common Cartridge v1.4 Profile of the IMS Global Metadata v1.3 binding of the IEEE LOMv1.0. This is for the metadata associated with resources in a Common Cartridge. This is based upon a combination of the Strict/Loose binding of LOMv1.0. The changes made to create this profile are: 1) Changed LOM Resource schema location reference to the '/K12/' directory; 2) Changed xs: version attribute value of this document to 'IMS K12 CC MD 1.3 RESOURCE 1.4'; 3) Added the 'textComplexity' element to the Educational Type in the LOM Resource metadata; 4) Changed 'typicalAgeRange' to be required and may only occur once in the LOM Resource metadata; 5) Changed the 'keyword' element to require at least one instance in the General section of the LOM Resource metadata. 6) Changed the 'title' element to require at least one instance in the General section of the LOM Resource metadata. History: Version 1.4: The third formal release of this CCv1.3 LOM for Resource profile. The key change is that all features of the LOM are now available for use.

Schematron Strict Selection Validation Rules ============================================ This is the set of Schematron rules that have been created to enforce the use of the "Unordered" stereotype. These rules ensure that the number of entries in an unordered complexType of an element obey the multiplicity constraints. This is required so that any-order/any-multiplicity complexTypes can be constructed and validated. Schematron validation rules for the enforcement of the Unordered stereotype.

[RULESET] For the Metadata.Type complexType. Each resource metadata element must have a lom:lom element. The AggregationLevel complexType is the container for the information about the functional granularity of this learning object. The Annotation complexType is the container for comments on the educational use of this learning object, and information on when and by whom the comments were created. This category enables educators to share their assessements of learning objects suggestions for use, etc. The Classification complexType is the container for information which describes where this learning object falls within a particular classification system. To define multiple classifications, there may be multiple instances of this category. The Context complexType is the container for the information about the principal environment within which the learning and use of this learning object is intended to take place. Suggested good practice is to use one of the values of the value space and to use an additional instance of this data element for further refinement. [CCv1p4-Resource] Profile - the changes to the XML element list are: * The "source" element has been made required i.e. multiplicity [1..1]; * The "value" element has been made required i.e. multiplicity [1..1]; * The "source" element class type has been changed to the class "ContextSourceVocab"; The Contribute complexType is the container for the entities (i.e. people, organizations) that have contributed to the state of the learning object. The ContributeMetametadata complexType is the container for the information about those entities that have affected the state of this metadata instance during its lifecycle e.g. creation, validation. This information is about contributions to the metadata. The CopyrightAndOtherRestrictions complexType defines whether copyright or other restrictions apply to the use of this learning object. The Cost complexType is the container for whether use of this learning object requires payment. The DateTime abstract complexType is the container for the annotated date/time. An accuracy of at least one second is supported. The ISO 8601 format is used. An associated description is also provided. The Difficulty complexType is the container for the information about how hard it is to work with or through this learning object for the typical intended target audience. The typical audience can be characterised by the data elements Educational.Context and Educational.TypicalAgeRange. The Duration abstract complexType is the container for an annotated duration. The value space for the duration is defined as per ISO 8601:2000. The Educational complexType is the container for the information that describes the key educational or pedagogic characteristics of this learning object. This is pedagogical informtion essential to those involved in achieving a quality learning experience. The audience for this metadata includes teachers, managers, authors and learners. [CCv1p4-Resource] Profile - the changes to the XML element list are: * The "intendedEndUserRole" element has been made required i.e. multiplicity [1..*]; The Identifier complexType is the container for the globally unique idenitifer that identifies the associated parent object. The IntendedEndUserRole complexType is the container for the information about the principal user(s) for which this learning object was designed, most dominant first. For Strict LOM binding this has an enumerated vocabulary. The Classification element can be used to describe the role through the skills the user is intended to master, or the tasks he or she is intended to be able to accomplish. [CCv1p4-Resource] Profile - the changes to the XML element list are: * The "source" element has been made required i.e. multiplicity [1..1]; * The "value" element has been made required i.e. multiplicity [1..1]; * The "source" element has been assigned a new default value of "IMSGLC_CC_Rolesv1p2"; * The "source" element class type has been changed to the class "EndUserRoleSourceVocab"; [CCv1p4-Resource] Profile - the changes to the XML element list are: * The "teacher" element has been prohibited; * The "author" element has been prohibited; * The "learner" element has been prohibited; * The "manager" element has been prohibited; * The "Instructor" element has been added to the enumeration list; * The "Learner" element has been added to the enumeration list; * The "Mentor" element has been added to the enumeration list; The InteractivityLevel complexType is the container for information about the degree of interactivity of the learning object. Interactiviy in this context refers to the degree to which the learner can influence the aspect or behaviour of the learning object. Inherently, this scale is meaningful within the context of a community of practice. The InteractivityType complexType is the container for the information about the predominant mode of learning supported by this learning project. For the Strict LOM binding this is an enumerated vocabulary. The Kind complexType is the container for the nature of the relationship between this learning object and the target learning object, identified by information in the associated Resource complexType. In LOMv1.0 (Strict) this is an enumerated vocabulary. The LangString complexType is the container for a group of language specific characterstrings. The LearningResourceType complexType is the container for the information about the specific kind of learning object. The most dominant kind shall be first. The vocabulary terms were originally defined as in OED:1989 and as used by any educational communities of practice. The list has been extended to add types from the LTI Resource Search specification. Support for an "Other" value is also added via the "otherValue" attribute. The LifeCycle complexType is the container for the history and current state of this learning object and those entities that have affected this learning object during its evolution. The LOM complexType is the container for the metadata instance. [CCv1p4-Resource] Profile - the changes to the XML element list are: * The "educational" element has been made required i.e. multiplicity [1..*]; The MetaMetadata complexType is the container for the information that describes this metadata record itself (rather than the learning object that this record describes). This category describes how the metadata instance can be identified, who created this metadata instance, and how, when, and with what references. The Name complexType is the container for the name of the required technology to use this learning object. The value for this element may be derived from the 'technical.format' automatically e.g. 'video/mpeg' implies 'multi-os'. Also, this vocabulary includes most values in common use at the time the LOM Standard was created. The OrComposite complexType is the container for grouping multiple requirements. The composite requirement is satisfied when one of the component requirements is satisfied i.e. the logical connector is 'OR'. The Purpose complexType is the container for the information on the purpose of classifying this learning obect. For the Strict LOM binding this is an enumerated vocabulary. The Relation complexType is the container for the information that defines the relationship between this learning object and other learning objects, if any. To define multiple relationships, there may be multiple instances of this category. If there is more than one target learning object the each object shall have a new relationship instance. The Requirement complexType is the container for the information about the technical capabilities necessary for using this learning object. If there are multiple requirements, then all are required i.e. the logical connector is 'AND'. The Resource complexType is the container for the information about the target learning object that this relationship references. The Rights complexType describes the intellectual property rights and conditions of use for this learning object. NOTE: The intent is to reuse results of ongoing work in the Intellectual Property Rights and e-commerce communities. This category currently provides the absolute minimum level of detail only. The Role complexType is the container for the kind of contribution. The RoleMetaMetadata complexType is the container for the information about the kind of contribution. For strict LOM this has an enumerated vocabulary of: { creator | validator }. The SemanticDensity complexType is the container for the information about the degree of conciseness of a learning object. The semantic density of a learning object may be estimated in terms of its size, or - in the case of self-timed resources such as audio or video - duration. The semantic density of a learning object is independent of its difficulty. The Status complexType is the container for the completion status or the condition of this learning object. The Structure complexType is the container about the underlying organizational structure of this learning object. The Taxon complexType is the container for the information about a particular term within a taxonomy. A taxon is a node that has a defined label or term. A taxon may also have an alphanumeric designation or identifier for standardized reference. Either or both the label and the entry may be used to designate a particular taxon. An ordered list of taxons creates a taxonomic path i.e. 'taxononomic stairway': this is a path from a more general to more specific entry in a classification. The TaxonPath complexType is the container for the information about the taxonomic path in a specific classification system. Each succeeding level is a refinement in the definition of the preceding level. There may be different paths in the same or different classifications, which describe the same characteristic. The Technical complexType is the container for the information that describes the technical requirements and characteristics of this learning object. The TextComplexity complexType is the container for information designed to indicate how difficult a passage in English is to understand. Possible values are based on established readability tests: * DRA Denotes the Developmental Reading Level Assessment® (DRA) by Scholastic Inc. * Dale-Chall Denotes the Dale-Chall readability formula created by Dale and Jeanne Chall and published in their article 'A Formula for Predicting Readability'. * Flesch-Kincaid Denotes the Flesch-Kincaid readability formula created under contract to the U.S. Navy in 1975 by J. Peter Kincaid and his team. * Fountas-Pinnell Denotes the Fountas-Pinnell Text Gradient® developed by Irene C Fountas and Gay Su Pinnell. * Lexile Denotes the Lexile Framework® for Reading created by MetaMetrics Inc. The Type complexType is the container for the information about the technology required to use this learning object e.g. hardware, software, network, etc.
