MACE Case Study

Gonzalo ParraK.U.Leuven

Starting point

• Repositories with architectural learning resources, but:

• isolated solutions

• not widely known

• no single access point

• No exchange and interconnection

Objectives• Create a conceptual and

technical infrastructure to

• connect contents via metadata

• connect existing communities

• provide federated search and access

• create a sustainable knowledge network

User groupsAcademic

• Schools and universities of Architecture

• Students and teachers

• Researchers

Professional

• Architects, architectural companies

• Information brokers

• Travel companies

Metadata enrichmentLearning resources described in MACE application profile based on IEEE LOM 1484.12.1

• Learners and social communities

• Tags, Recommendations, Notes

• Name, title, location, etc.

• Own resources

• Experts through MACE classification group

• Classification

• Confirm learner contributions

Bridging repositoriesJoint classification: MACE Vocabulary bridges classifications used in repositories

Real-World Object representations group learning resources

• Buildings

• Projects

• People

Metadata types

• Content and domain metadata

• Context metadata

• Social and usage–related metadata

• Competence and learning process metadata
