Draft summary

The ISO/IEC 19788 series specifies, in a rule-based manner, properties and their attributes for the description of learning resources. This includes the rules governing the identification of properties and the specification of their attributes. These properties may be used to form the description of a learning resource, i.e. as a metadata learning resource (MLR) record described in ISO/IEC 19788-8:2015Data elements for MLR records. This document provides a set of properties for the description of learning resources, from the ISO 15836-1:2017 Dublin Core metadata element set, using the framework provided in ISO/IEC 19788-1:2024. This document specifies properties which codomain is « literal » (as considered in early Dublin Core) and properties which codomain is a resource class; the ISO 15836 series allowing (implicitly) both. This provides full interoperability at the time of expressing existing Dublin Core records with MLR, while allowing a linked data approach for the description of learning resources. These elements can later be combined with other descriptive elements including those from other parts of the ISO/IEC 19788 series or other standards, including Dublin Core refinements and IEEE 1484.12.1-2002[2] in order to address more specific topics such as technical or educational information.
