Benefits of XML Dynamic content assembly Automated processing Reuse Content filtering Structured queries Portability XML

XML Related Specifications XQuery XProc XSL FO XSLT XSD XInclude

What is S1000D? ASD, AIA, and ATA Air, land, and sea Open standards Information lifecycle Vehicles, machinery, Heavy equipment Military and civil S1000D

S1000D Basic Principles S1000D XML Metadata CSDB Modularity

S1000D Data Module Identification and Status (data module code, applicability, issue number, etc.)‏ Content (actual maintenance or operation procedure)‏

S1000D Publication Module (PM)‏ DM Reference DM Reference DM Reference DM Reference DM Reference

Data Module Code (DMC)‏
1B: Model Identification Code (Euro Fighter)‏
A: System Difference Code
29: System (Hydraulic Power)‏
10: Subsystem (Main Hydraulic Power)‏
05: Unit or Component (Hydraulic Tank)‏
01: Disassembly Code (first assembly removed from the tank)‏
A: Disassembly Code Variant
253: Information Code (clean by ultrasonic with equipment X)‏
B: Information Code Variant (clean by ultrasonic with equipment Y)‏
C: Item Location Code
C = Maintenance on the bench
T = Training

What is SCORM? Conformance Test Suite Interoperable and reusable learning content Sharable Content Object Reference Model Learning Management Systems (LMS)‏

Key Players Instructional Designer Technical Writer

The Technical Approach Reuse Business Rules Required information set End users and delivery context

Transform Whole S1000D DM into an SCO 1
Add LOM to DM
Transform DM into SCO with XSLT
2
Retain S1000D metadata in SCO
Generate S1000D SCORM Content Package
3
Potential issues:
Complex learning interactions are not easily captured
Granularity
Language style
Adherence to good instructional design

Include Pieces of S1000D DM in an SCO SCO Benefits
Instructional Designer:
Searches ( XQuery ) and displays DMs
Uses XInclude to include reusable content from DM
More freedom in applying instructional design principles
SCO is automatically updated when DM is updated
Data Module
Use XSLT generate-id() or XProc to generate a unique ID for all reusable elements:

Create S1000D 4.0 Learning DM

S1000D 4.0 SCORM Content Package

Apply Applicability Filtering to SCOs UI Selection Or Login Credentials SCORM Global Objective & Simple Sequencing (SS)‏ SCO Presentation

Best Practices Reuse Process Instructional Design Business Rules, ISO Schematron XML Schema, XSLT 2.0, XQuery, Xinclude, XProc
