Unifying Assumptions Interoperable components standard services,structures, behaviors Layered framework separated system services, educational services, and learning applications Decomposable content and experiences re-usable aggregations and activities Independence from implementations multiple realizations, multiple use domains

25 www.imsglobal.org © 2003 IMS Global Learning Consortium, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Take-aways for Discussion The base of e-learning technology and experience already is established Adoptability and user impact will dominate technology and program elegance Specs (and standards) will continue to evolve Too much localization undermines utility
