Overview
• Context and Questions
– Standards for What?– What is the Problem Space?– How do we model it?
• The Challenge of Collaboration
• Issues
• Looking Forward – What Needs to Happen

Key Context
• e-learning not just a passing fad– transforming access & delivery of education
and training … & its traditional resource base– spans home, workplace, and institution
• Convergence of e-infrastructure– e-learning– knowledge management– performance support– and more … [keyword = services]
• First generation standards are stable• But standards are still developing• Growing number & range of players

“An immense and ever-increasing wealth of knowledge is scattered about the world today; knowledge that would probably suffice to solve all the mighty difficulties of our age, but it is dispersed and unorganized. We need a sort of mental clearing house: a depot where knowledge and ideas are received, sorted, summarized, digested, clarified and compared.”
H.G. Wells, The Brain: Organization of the Modern World, 1940.

What Standards?
Three broad kinds:
• Standards specifically purposed to support learning, education, and training (&/or KM)
• Standards not specifically purposed to support learning, education, and training but are still essential in enabling it (&/or KM)
• More widely deployed standards that may be useful for learning, education, and training (&/or KM)

• What is content?– new data-types & object-types constantly appearing
• Movable boundaries– Content, context, & learning activities– Objects, collections, repositories, … & federations – Data, information, & knowledge
• Modeling knowledge & learning– Complex Adaptive Systems
Conceptual Challenges
Content is in the eye of the beholder
Learning Technology & Knowledge Systems must evolve into supporting complex processes

• Cultural KM (indigenous, community-of-practice, …)
• National KM (national policies for stimulating innovative cultures within industry)
Definitions – Five Perspectives

Nouns- learning, knowledge, management
Verbs- learn, know, manage, innovate … (learning, knowing, …)
Knowledge- is both a thing and a flow- e-learning & KM systems are dynamic systems- like particle & wave theories in Physics- (typically) cumulative, adaptive

Three Heuristics
Knowledge is volunteered, not conscripted- shared knowledge is more powerful than pooled information. Trust is key
We will always know more than we can tell, and tell more than we can write down
- writing is reflective knowledge
We only know what we know when we need to know it.
- knowledge is always contextual
Definitions - Dave Snowden, IBM

Seven Levels of Knowledge Management
Infrastructure – physical & technical support structures
Content – intellectual capital (knowledge representation)
Processes – expressing knowledge development
Organization – creating structures to support KM (recognizing communities of practice)
Relationships – establishing & maintaining
Products & Services
Strategy – with knowledge recognized as the key resource
Definitions - Rudy Ruggles, Dan Holtshouse – The Knowledge Advantage

35
Knowledge Management …
“is a multi-disciplined approach to achieving organizational objectives by making the best use of knowledge. KM focuses on processes such as acquiring, creating and sharing knowledge and the cultural and technical foundations that support them. The aim is to align knowledge processes with organizationalobjectives.”

Knowledge Management
… “is a set of practices and processes for systematically adding value to intellectual and knowledge based resources … Like finance, land, capital equipment and people, knowledge has become a critical resource for businesses, community organisations and government.”

What is a Standard?
“A Standard is a published document which sets out specifications and procedures designed to ensure that a material, product, method or service is fit for its purpose and consistently performs the way it was intended to.”

38
Standards are Created
• Depend upon agreement & collaboration (ideally consensus)
• A natural artifact of any human society
• Communities of practice develop standards (& conventions, protocols, fashions, etc)
• Signal marketplace maturity of an industry
• All successful industries depend on standards
• Help create ‘trust’ infrastructure
But!

Standards are Misunderstood
as
• A means for corporate dominance in a market
• A means for government regulatory control
• Limiting personal freedom of expression
• Limiting frontier thinking & innovation
and, there’s wide usage of the term!

Standards …
• Utilize and define boundaries
• Enable networks
• Facilitate development of systems
• Stimulate & capitalize on innovation
• Promote interoperability

Interoperability Dimensions
Political Agreeing to common goals & ground rules for achieving mutual benefit
Jurisdictional Mapping legal, regional interests
Semantic Achieving common understanding, common meanings (eg Dublin Core)
Cultural Communities of Practice, workflow
Syntactic Sharing grammars, templates, …
Technical Systems exchanging data & services

“The story of the creation and development of the Internet is one of an extraordinary human adventure. It highlights people’s capacity totranscend institutional goals, overcome bureaucratic barriers, and subvert established values in the process of ushering in a new world. It also lends support to the view that cooperation and freedom of information may be more conducive to innovation than competition and proprietary rights.”
Manuel Castells

A Future Case-Study: e-portfolios
• What standards are needed?– Identity & Access management
– Portable, validated student records
– Competency classification & validation
– Multiple repository/device interfaces
– Content management
– … (User Control!)
• Who will be the trusted service providers?– Universities unlikely to be sufficient in long term
– IT vendors do not have a lot of “trust equity”
• “i18n” (internationalization)– Is it sufficient (e.g., IDN & phishing problem)?
Trust Infrastructure

Ongoing Issues
• Internationalization (language & culture)
• Cost of effective Collaboration
• Engagement of key stakeholders
• Organizational / Domain “silos”• Trust
• Terminology
• Implementation trade-offs
• Building Infrastructure that scales
• Sustainability
