Brainstorming on Course format
Contributors
- Jose Cuevas
What is happening?
- Course information is available in disparate formats which makes it hard to compare information, extract information and find information.
- Students Information Systems lack proper data exchange schemes and standards.
- No data syndication of course information among campuses.
Why would it help?
- A community format allows the use and sharing of course data commonly publish on the web.
- Provides semantics to academic information.
- Provides means to mechanically operate on web content for data that otherwise is published on PDF, printed, published with proprietary EDI or XML interfaces or worst jailed in a SIS database.
