IEEE P1484.12.1-2002/Cor 1_D13, Jan 2010

IEEE P1484.12.1-2002/Cor 1_D13, Jan 2010 is a draft corrigendum to the Learning Object Metadata standard, providing corrections and clarifications for the 1484.12.1 LOM specification. It is relevant to engineers and technical teams working with structured educational metadata, where consistent descriptions help improve cataloging, exchange, and retrieval of learning resources. As an inactive English-language standard document, it serves as a reference point for understanding the intended metadata model and its corrigenda.

IEEE P1484.12.1-2002/Cor 1_D13, Jan 2010 overview

This technical document addresses corrections to the Learning Object Metadata framework associated with IEEE P1484.12.1-2002. Its purpose is to refine how metadata elements are interpreted and applied, helping users work from a more consistent specification. For organizations handling learning content, the corrigendum can support clearer implementation of metadata records, reduce ambiguity in element usage, and improve alignment between different systems that rely on standardized descriptions of educational objects.

Typical use cases

IEEE P1484.12.1-2002/Cor 1_D13, Jan 2010 is typically used when reviewing or maintaining learning management systems, educational repositories, or metadata tools that implement LOM-based records. It may also be consulted during schema mapping, interoperability checks, and documentation of content libraries where precise element definitions matter. Teams responsible for digital learning workflows often use the standard to confirm how metadata should be recorded, exchanged, and validated across related systems.

Why this standard matters

This standard matters because metadata quality directly affects how learning resources are organized, discovered, and reused. By clarifying parts of the original LOM specification, IEEE P1484.12.1-2002/Cor 1_D13, Jan 2010 helps reduce interpretation differences that can lead to inconsistent records or integration issues. That makes it useful for compliance review, procurement of compatible tools, internal documentation, and testing of metadata implementations where consistency and traceability are important.
