LOM diagram

The LOM (Learning Object Metadata) is a scheme for describing teaching and learning resources. It consists of a set of metadata to describe the nature, syntax and semantics of an educational object. It can be used to describe both digital and non-digital resources. Technically, its name is IEEE 1484.12.1-2002 (LOM).

This standard was designed in 2002 by the “IEEE-LTSC-LOM, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. – Learning Technology Standards Committee – Learning Objects Metadata Working Group”, an international organization of representatives from Canada, the United States, several countries in Europe, Africa, Latin America, Asia and some Pacific regions.

Its objectives are as follows:

- allow a better visibility of the offer of educational objects, digital or not. - have standards to be respected to ensure the sustainability, interoperability, and a certain opening of the digital resources produced, in relation to the platforms for distribution and consultation of these resources. (extract from the experimental standard).
