Definition
Educational modelling language (or educational modeling language) formally describes educational materials and contents.
Typology of modeling languages
Modeling languages are developed by differents sorts of institutions:
- Real standardization bodies
- De facto standardization bodies like IMS or SCORM
- International research networks like Ariadne or Kaleidoscope
- Various research laboratories
Executable vocabularies =
- IMS Learning Design and its ancestor EML
Packaging languages
- By definition, packaging languages are not educational modeling languages per se, but can wrap up for distribution "executable" bricks defined with modeling languages.
- However, IMS Content Packaging for example does include some simple sequencing information.
