You may also like to read the News article about the Pedagogy Forum Launch event on the CETIS website, "Teachers Teach the Techies" by Wilbert Kraan.
At the Pedagogy Forum Launch Event there was some reference to a specification brought out by IMS called Learning Design.
Related to the discussions about Learning Design were requirements for ‘tools’ and some
mentioned ‘LAMS’
(Learning Activity Management System) and COLIS (Collaborative Online Learning & Information
Services) - this is not a ‘tool’ but the acronym came up and Feedback gathered from the
evaluation forms asked for more information about both these; future events and briefing documents
will hopefully provide this, but in the meantime you may this information helpful –
its extracted from minutes of the CETIS Educational Content (EC) Special Interest Group.

The 'Learning Networks' Forum at http://learningnetworks.org is run by OUNL and has a IMS Learning Design & EML forum which contains ‘Resources’, ‘Discussion’ and ‘FAQ’. Within FAQ there is a link to a pdf document with Frequently Asked Questions concerning IMS Learning Design. To access this, you will need to register and then access the area yourself. There are also several other resources which you may find useful. Please also input to the discussion forum and feed back any other questions you may have, as this is a recent specification and contributions from the community are valuable.
