National bodies that

10、 are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other internat

11、ional organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in

12、the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at

13、least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. In exceptional circumstances, when the joint technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may decide to publish a Technical Report.

14、 A Technical Report is entirely informative in nature and shall be subject to review every five years in the same manner as an International Standard. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held r

15、esponsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC TR 24725-3 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 36, Information technology for learning, education and training. ISO/IEC TR 24725 consists of the following parts, under the g

17、/IEC TR 24725-3:2010(E) ISO/IEC 2010 All rights reserved vIntroduction Information technologies are being employed throughout the world to support learning, education and training activities using various media (digital video, audio, etc.) and varying platform configurations. Instructors, trainers,

18、mentors and learners can be located in different places around the world and can engage in activities synchronously or asynchronously. Teaching personnel, learners, administration and technical support staff can be separated by geographic distance and located in different time zones. With these cons

19、iderations in mind, it is essential that a shared standardized vocabulary and associated taxonomy be developed to support the interoperability and sound functioning of underlying information technology (IT) structures, including media and platform applications. The concept and structure of integrate

20、d supportive technologies and specifications that can be combined to sustain and enhance learning, education and training activities are specifed in ISO/IEC TR 24725-1. The purpose of ISO/IEC TR 24725-3 is to recommend when and how certain IT media and platform applications can be combined and used.

21、 A bundle of different media and platform technologies defines subsets or combinations of technologies that support a specific function, and can be associated with a particular application, community, and/or environment. Different bundles can be created and utilized to meet the needs of specific com

22、munities (e.g. learning communities, educational institutions, and corporate training organizations). Several technology bundles can be developed for different operating scenarios, such as “browser platform”, “workstation platform” and “media types”. These bundles are determined by first considering

23、 the function or purpose; then, the components required are identified from the taxonomy. The identification of the technologies can include consideration of compatibility issues and recommendations to ensure interoperability across diverse IT systems. It is expected that, over time, these profiles

24、will be updated and amended as needed to remain relevant to updates and changes resulting from the development of new and emerging technologies. This standard profile will identify existing standards and specifications of learning technology platforms and their content. It will not specify the techn

25、ical details, but limitations and enhancements to these standards and specifications. It is recognized that the bundling of technologies to support learning, education, and training activities has certain considerations that are not within the scope of this document, including but not limited to: a)

26、 suitability of technology bundles to meet basic requirements for 1) teaching (teaching style, underlying learning theory (or theories) employed, etc.), 2) learners (learning styles, previous experiences, attitudes towards technology, etc.), 3) subject matter (subject domain, level of complexity, te

27、chnical content, etc.), 4) milieu (networked environment at a university, corporate intranet, etc.), 5) other (privacy requirements, administrative and government reporting, etc.); b) technical considerations (e.g., backward and forward compatibility, migration, integration with multiple systems suc

28、h as Human Resource Information Systems, Student Information Systems, etc.); c) evaluation of technology bundle effectiveness in terms of intended function. It is anticipated that some or all of these considerations will be addressed in future editions of ISO/IEC 24725-3, in companion standards, Tec

29、hnical Reports, best practices guidelines, or in documents elsewhere.

30、cope This part of ISO/IEC TR 24725 provides standardized vocabulary, taxonomy of media and platform technologies, and a process that can be used to describe different combinations or bundles of media and platform technologies, which are needed to perform identified functions or to support a class of

31、 applications for learners within or across various information technology environments. It provides examples of how and when bundles of technologies can be defined to support learning, education and training activities. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms

41、 to have the property of inheritance, which means that the items within a category or class share the properties of that class or category. In the case of the Platform and Media Taxonomy provided in 5.2, two classes or categories are provided platform and media and the related technologies have been

42、 organized within these two categories. Subclause 5.2 provides a simplified ITLET Platform and Media Taxonomy. Subclause 5.3 provides a process for determining a platform and media bundle in order to perform a specific function. Examples of how Platform and Media Bundles can be developed to perform

43、a specific function are provided in Annex A and a more detailed listing of technologies within the taxonomy is provided in Annex B. 4.2 Platform and Media Taxonomy (PMT) Recognizing that new technologies are being developed over time, the structure of the ITLET Platform and Media Taxonomy has been s

44、implified to include general categories of items. A more detailed listing of the technologies within the taxonomy framework is provided in Annex B. NOTE The figures provided below may require modifications and improvement. Media WorkstationSoftware IT SystemIT Platform Figure 1 Platform and Media Ta

46、Bundle based on the Platform and Media Taxonomy Depending on the function for which technologies are being assembled, the required platform browser and workstation components are identified, as well as the media components and supportive technologies. These components are grouped together in a bundl

47、e. Communication with vendors, learners, developers, administrators, and other stakeholders may be facilitated through the use of standardized bundles of technologies that are identified to support specific ITLET functions. 5 Conformance The vendors who have created or combined specifications refere

48、nced in these technology bundles may not claim that their formats have been standardized because they have been referenced in this part of ISO/IEC TR 24725. Some may already be international standards, others may be in the process of becoming international standards, and some may not be internationa

49、l standards. It is the taxonomy and the process of bundling the technologies using a common vocabulary that has been standardized within this part of ISO/IEC TR 24725. This part of ISO/IEC TR 24725 may reference technologies, specifications, and standards, and does so in the manner of a reference. The intellectual property of the referenced specifications and technologies is still retained by the respective original intellectual property holders. The technology bundles only reference documents, techn
