Microformats in Education: Course Catalog
Starting a collection of research, examples, and a rationale for a microformat for course catalogs in Higher Education. - Jesse Rodgers
Some Microformat use in Education
Here is a list of edu sites that use microformats:
- Mays Business School at Texas A&M University in our faculty directory choose an individual and they will have an hCard and vcard. For info contact Matt Herzberger
- University of Waterloo Events (Beta) - new events system being developed that will use hCal and iCal
- Pierce College staff/faculty directory uses hCard.
Where could there be a need for microformats in education?
Course Catalog
A course catalog (sometimes known as a course calendar) is a collection of courses and when they are available as well as fee schedules and course dependencies.
Examples
- University of Waterloo Course Calendar - current system is set for an upgrade but as you can see the code is very inconsistent.
- Course information is displayed with:
- course title
- course requirements
- eligibility requirements
- any notes that are relevant to that course such as any special circumstances
- (Anthropology Example) - no class or id names present
- Course information is displayed with:
- University of Guelph undergrad calendar - there is an attempt to assign relevant class names to table elements.
tr class="title"
a name="ANTH4300" ANTH*4300 Anthropological Issues F (3-0) [0.50]
tr class="description"
tr class="prereqs"
- Wilfried Laurier undergrad calendar
- Anthropology example - no class or id names present
- University of Toronto - Scarborough Campus
- University of Western Ontario
