The document discusses trends in metadata and learning objects. It argues that metadata needs to move beyond just describing content to also include people, competencies, locations and contexts. Learning objects should combine content with competencies and contexts to enable personalized learning experiences. Standards like CORDRA aim to support discovery, delivery and identification of learning content across different systems.
