Autopopulating metadata February 18, 2010

My project colleague, Yvonne Monterroso, at D2L, will be pleased to know that I have started to investigate autopopulating metadata this week. I am only in the very early stages. I have mentioned in a previous post that our discussions have related to using templates to manage copyright LOs e.g a template for “Nottingham Trent University All Rights Reserved” and a template for ”Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike” etc… Also I thought about other fields that can be autopopulated such as the learning room title in to the description. Full details can be found at http://wiki.ntushare.org/tiki-index.php?page=Metadata+changes (at the bottom of the page). As Yvonne has stated before there is great potential in using templates to support the challenging task of completing metadata, especially in a situation like ours where staff deposit their own learning content and I think it is worth investigating School specific templates, as well.
