Lorna’s JISC CETIS blog outlines a draft of metadata guidelines for the HEFCE/Academy/JISC OER Programme. From the blog post:
Rather than mandating a formal application profile based on a single open standard we are instead identifying the type of information that projects must record for the resources they create without mandating how this should be done. Hopefully this will give projects considerably greater flexibility as to how they describe their resources and ultimately we hope that this will result in richer descriptions that are of value to end users.
