22、ical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that 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 act

23、ivity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international 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 comm

24、ittee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in 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

25、to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at 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 Intern

26、ational Standard (“state of the art”, for example), it may propose the publication of a Technical Report. 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 s

27、ome of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO/IEC TR 24763 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 36, Information technol

28、ogy for learning, education and training. ISO/IEC TR 24763:2011(E) ISO/IEC 2011 All rights reserved vii0 Introduction 0.1 General There are currently several existing and implemented models providing competency information related to learner knowledge, skills, capabilities, qualifications, performan

29、ce, learning objectives, and other related objects. Some of these models do not interoperate because of lack of clarity or consistency of the semantics. The primary purpose of this Technical Report is to provide an information technology for learning, education and training (ITLET) Conceptual Refere

30、nce Model (CRM) that will support consistency and enhance understanding and interoperability of various existing competency information models across learning, education and training (LET) communities. This Technical Report provides both the ITLET Conceptual Reference Model and a process that may be

31、 used to compare and enable exchange of data between heterogeneous information models across LET communities. The ITLET Conceptual Reference Model is a common reference point against which divergent and incompatible sources of information can be compared and, ultimately, harmonized. It may also be u

32、sed as a basis for the assembly of new models and related standardization work. The standardization concept is that the ITLET Conceptual Reference Model can be used as a “fundamental level” of modelling to complement the currently accepted levels of 1) semantic model or meta-model, 2) information mo

33、del, 3) data model. It defines a framework for building potential information models related to competencies as represented in LET information technology systems by providing classes and properties that are common across multiple use cases and mappings of existing metadata onto these classes. These

34、classes and properties provide reference points for attributes and information structures included in the information models. The information models in turn can be used to develop frameworks that may be used to develop bindings to specific data structures and formats. This Technical Report provides

35、a common model and format to clarify the logic of information types and relationships that are used in LET information technology systems underlying the information systems related to competencies that are used by LET organizations and their respective communities. It is important to note that this

36、Technical Report aims to clarify the logic of information types and relationships that are used in information technology systems by LET organizations and their communities in order to manage, develop, describe, transfer or assess competency information or other related objects. This Technical Repor

37、t is primarily informative in content. Challenges that have been identified include (but are not limited to) the need for competency standards to: accommodate complex competency information structures, provide adequate linkages to competency information that resides within different IT systems, prov

38、ide support for comparisons of competency information, across diverse communities and contexts, and allow for the monitoring and updating of competency information related to individual learners. IT systems managing competency information face many challenges, such as the following. There is no sing

39、le definition of competency that is accepted by all. Instead, there are many definitions, using different structures and vocabularies, describing different levels of competency. It has even been suggested that competency is an unobservable entity, and therefore that it cannot be traced, measured or

40、recorded. ISO/IEC TR 24763:2011(E) viii ISO/IEC 2011 All rights reserved IT systems may be designed, developed, and implemented with specific labels for competency information in mind, according to the context in which it is used (see Clause 8). IT systems need to provide cost-effective support for

41、the description of competencies at multiple levels of abstraction and in various formats. IT systems may need to comply with international, national and regional legislative requirements. Competency information may be associated with identifiable individuals, and could be used to make decisions rela

42、ted to employment, advancement, admission, accreditation, etc. When competency information is related to an identifiable individual, then privacy protection of this individual is essential. Therefore, competency information standards should protect the privacy and integrity of that information. They

43、 should allow flexible methods for sharing that information under the control of the person or people described by that information. There is also a need to aggregate and normalize information about the competency of multiple individuals to support decision-making by organizations. Therefore, compet

44、ency standards should support the description of competencies at multiple levels of abstraction. Many stakeholders have an interest in competency information, all with different views of the information and different terminologies about competency information. Each different LET institution may be s

45、upported through the use of specific information systems that consist of digital products and services selected to support the institutional mission. The process of the delivery of digital products from point(s) of origin (provider) to destination (stakeholder) to support LET can be described using

46、a Digital Services Supply Chain (DSSC) approach. There currently are several existing and implemented models providing competency information related to learner knowledge, skills, capabilities, qualifications, performance, learning objectives, and other related objects. These models are implemented

47、in various ways, and the relationships inherent within the models may be made explicit by applying a DSSC approach to real-world implementations of competency information models. Thus, a challenge for competency information standards is to provide methods for taking advantage of existing information

48、 about competencies in current and emerging IT systems that are used to manage, develop, describe, transfer or assess competency information or other related objects. 0.2 Areas of applicability This Technical Report applies to activities including: a. Assistance with understanding competency as it i

49、s measured and observed within an IT system and the description and process by which the ITLET Conceptual Reference Model may be used as a common reference point to facilitate the exchange and management of information for IT systems that support the management, development, description, transfer or assessment of competency information or other related objects. b. The use of an ITLET Conceptual Reference Model toolkit that includes: the ITLET Conceptual Reference Model that
