WilbertKraan has written a
nice explanation of the VDEX specification:
-
IMS have just released a rather handy, small and general purpose specification for the exchange of vocabularies. There are a good many potential uses for the spec, but one of the main ones is as a means to facilitate interoperability between different application profiles of existing IMS and other learning technology specifications.
There is now an open source tool:
Open Source IMS VDEX authoring tool available -- an extension to the ReloadProject.
I wonder whether this specification is going to be useful in continuing the work RickBeaubien and I have been doing on a MetsToImsCrossWalk, some of which we have outlined in our MetsImsInteropPaper.
