The document discusses the ASPECT project which aims to promote the adoption of learning technology standards and specifications in the education sector. It highlights the need for standards to facilitate discovery, access and sharing of high quality learning resources while minimizing costs. The project will assess existing standards and specifications, make recommendations, and establish resources like a registry and advisory center to support implementation of best practices. It brings together over 200 experts from 22 organizations across Europe to support greater interoperability of educational content.
