DC-Education Application Profile Task Group
DC-Ed Application Profile Module
Aim: to provide a “modular” AP to support interoperable description of educational aspects of resources.
Scope: educationally significant properties available in Dublin Core + any other educational properties, e.g. elements from the LOM.
Out-of-scope: will not define or give guidelines for usage of non-educational properties, or non-educational usage of properties.
Modular: aim to enable people to “plug in” the AP with other APs they are using, e.g. the Libraries AP, the Scholarly Works AP, Collection Description AP, a modular accessibility AP, or a local AP.

DC-Education Application Profile Task Group
DC-Ed Application Profile Module: Progress
Requirements gathering: 49 use cases gathered from 23 countries and a range of educational sectors.
Functional requirements: generic ones drafted; specific ones based on use cases to be completed.
Domain model: draft domain model completed (work-in-progress)
To be determined based on all of above
Proposed elements (new and existing): To be determined based on above.
Description Set Profile: Exact requirements for this still to be determined (first attempt at modular AP; DSP requirements unclear).
Usage Guidelines: To be developed.
