Cataloging digital educational content

This 7 minute long video on Cataloging digital education content  discusses the process of cataloguing digital educational content, with a focus on the role of metadata in facilitating its localisation and reuse. The video presents the cataloguing process and underscores the importance of properly cataloguing educational digital materials. It explains the core concepts, uses, and management of metadata, and highlights the various standards educators can use to create effective metadata, including Dublin Core, Learning Object Metadata (LOM), Common Cartridge, and Metadata Object Description Schema (MODS).

Using the categorisation system based on Prendes et al. (2008), the module demonstrates how metadata can be classified into three levels:

  • Administrative Metadata
  • Technical Metadata
  • Subject Classification

Furthermore, the material provides examples of labelling educational content, both textual and audiovisual, to ensure clarity and accessibility for users. This framework ensures effective cataloguing and management of digital educational resources. This video is part of a module from Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche, Spain.
