Sequencing: simplicity and extensibility

A white paper written in the context of the LETSI workshop on SCORM 2.0, held in October 2008. The ideas in this paper, along with other papers on the LETSI wiki addressing sequencing, are under active consideration in the LETSI sequencing workgroup.

A critique of Becta's policy on Learning Platforms

This paper was written in June 2006 in the context of Becta's contentious Learning Services framework procurement. It was not published until January 2007, when its foreboding about the procurement was fulfilled. Although its polemical character is no longer appropriate, it nevertheless provides a useful and relatively detailed exposition of the importance of standards for content interoperability. It keeps its place on the website until a more up-to-date description of a strategy for interoperability can take its place in early 2009.

The importance of content interoperability

The text of a speech made to the European Educaton Partnership's (EEP) conference on learning platforms, held in October 2006. It is subject to the same caveat regarding its historical context as the critique above, but is still useful as a short, non-technical statement of the argument for content interoperability.
