Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT MetaMedia An Open Platform for Media Annotation and Sharing http://metamedia.mit.edu Workshop "Online Archives: Perspectives on Networked Knowledge Spaces”, Fraunhofer Institute, November 25-26, 2002

Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT MetaMedia offers: A flexible on-line environment to create, store, annotate, and share media-rich documents MetaMedia allows: Faculty to build subject-specific mini- archives for teaching and learning MetaMedia supports: Educational innovation through creative use of multimedia materials

Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT Background Previous projects in the Humanities at MIT either: - stored data in proprietary formats, or - created flat web pages Common problem: - Media and metadata could not be extracted and reused Missing resources: - to rebuild projects - to support similar approaches in different projects
5
Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT Vision - Separate content, presentation, and logic - Leverage existing components for new projects - Enable easy creation of new media projects - Provide upload and annotation mechanisms - Allow users at different institutions to collaborate - Build a system in which components can be exchanged - Offer flexible ways for content creation and presentation
6
Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT Open Standards The MetaMedia framework stores metadata in standard markup formats, such as Dublin Core and Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). Separation of Content and Presentation Storing markup in standard formats allows MetaMedia to separate media content and its presentation cleanly and simply. Extending Project Lifecycles Separating content and presentation extends each project’s lifetime, as markup can be output in XML and migrated to new software when necessary.
7
Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT User Collaboration Integrated permissions management allows users to add to and share materials in the repository, encouraging constructivist models of learning and research. Exchanging Content Supporting open markup standards allows related groups in Humanities Computing to exchange media and annotations, thus fostering academic collaboration within and across institutions. Room to Grow Storing content in rich markup formats form the start allows projects to grow into more sophisticated functionality without starting from scratch.
8
Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT Multimedia Markup Multimedia markup standards allow users to annotate images, audio, and video, making MetaMedia a cross- media repository platform.
9
Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT Design Considerations - Serve content to the web and ‘fat clients’ (Java applications) - Content to be exportable and importable in standard markup formats - Problem: semi-structured vs. structured content - XML Markup formats: Dublin core: standard bibliographic data TEI: electronic representation of printed documents DocBook: generic electronic books MPEG-7: markup for images and video RDF/Annotea: ‘post-it’ type notes IMS/SCORM: learning objects - Document-centric model - Collaboration and transactionality
10
Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT User Interface Modules - Repository viewer/sectioner - Workspace module - Forums - Annotation module - Workflow module - Individual project user interfaces - Multimedia essay module - User login/registration - User preferences - Administration pages

Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT The Open Knowledge Initiative™ (OKI) is defining an open and extensible architecture for learning technology specifically targeted to the needs of the higher education community. OKI provides detailed specifications for interfaces among components of a learning management environment, and open source examples of how these interfaces work. The OKI architecture is intended to be used both by commercial product vendors and by higher education product developers. It provides a stable, scalable base that supports the flexibility needed by higher education as learning technology is increasingly integrated into the education process. http://web.mit.edu/oki/

Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT http://www.dspace.org/ DSpace is an open source software platform that enables institutions to: capture and describe digital works using a submission workflow module distribute an institution's digital works over the web through a search and retrieval system preserve digital works over the long term
14
Dr. Kurt Fendt, Comparative Media Studies, MIT OCW is a large-scale, Web-based electronic publishing initiative at MIT. Its goals are to: Provide free, searchable, coherent access to MIT's course materials for educators in the non-profit sector, students, and individual learners around the world. Create an efficient, standards-based model that other universities may emulate to publish their own course materials. http://ocw.mit.edu/
