Introduction
• SLO – Centre of Excellence for Curriculum Design
Questions.. to think about
• Advice about:
– Possibilities of Learning Trajectories?
– Vocabularies vs Linked data?
– Alternatives?
Why Learning Trajectories
• Based on national curricular framework• General core objectives ->
simplified in intermediate objectives• Decision support for teachers,
publishers, educational developers• Developing course materials
– Content– Learning objectives– Sequence– Planning
Planning
Other functions of learning trajectories
• Coherence in courses• Continuity, consistency• Organisational aspects, planning• Differentiated education• Personal learning guidance • Individual learning plan• Education approach
What is a Learning Trajectory 1?
• A learning trajectory is a reasoned structured set of intermediate objectives and content leading to a certain core objective
What are Learning Trajectories 2?
• Depending on the exact function, context and audience curricula vary in the extent to which
• different implications for curriculum elements are developed.

Curriculum Elements
COMPONENT CORE QUESTION
Rationale Why are they learning?
Objectives Towards which goals are they learning?
Content What are they learning?
Learning activities How are they learning?
Teacher role How is the teacher facilitating their learning?
Materials and resources With what are they learning?
Grouping With whom are they learning?
Location Where are they learning?
Time When are they learning?
Assessment How is their learning assessed?
Different levels of Learning Trajectories
• European level– Common European Framework of Reference:
Learning, Teaching, Assessment
• National level– Cross level learning trajectories Math, Dutch
language
• School level– Supporting educational approach
• Student level– Monitoring progress

Existing Dutch vocabularies
• LOM (Learning Object Metadata)• Standard available set (CZP), Vdex
– Education (primary, secondary, higher, vocational)
– Levels (1,2,3..)– Age (8..12 Yr)– Core objectives– ..
New Dutch vocabulaires
• Intermediate objectives• Core content topics
– Language, Math• Relations• Didactical approach• Reasoned structure
Technical Requirements
• Interoperability repositories
• Lifecycle• Tooling
• Machine readable• Standards• Flexibility• Complexity
Standards
• IMS – Vdex (Vocabularies)• IMS – Rubrics • IMS – Packages / SCORM• SCORM Simple Sequencing
• RDF - Resource description framework

Linked data
Linked data
SLO
SLO as data provider
• Learning Trajectories as Relations between– Vocabularies
• Core objectives• Intermediate objectives• Discipline topics / content
– Learning resources
Questions.. To may have thought about
– Possibilities of Learning Trajectories?
– Vocabularies vs Linked data?
– Alternatives?
