LEAP 2.0 and a way forward Simon Grant JISC CETIS Portfolio SIG London, 2007-10-22
Maastricht • Importance of employers • Employability portfolios • HR-XML • Link to IMS ePortfolio • Can we relate the two based on models • ontology?
What is a portfolio? items and relationships
Portfolio basics • Needed for • whole transfer (secure feelings) • parts for presentation, query, matching • Information is web, not hierarchy • What kinds of things make up the web? • Class or type hierarchy can be useful
LEAP 2.0 starting points • Portfolio items • anything that can be related • Relationships • relating any items • Relationships are “light” • content-free • no need for separate identifiers
Types of LEAP item • Entry • things standing for themselves, primarily represented in the portfolio • Proxy • standing for things with an independent existence: can be simply title & reference • Tag
LEAP item entry tag proxy activity personality organization achievement interest goal person reflexion thing value planned meeting assertion competency file achieved qualification claim things that are below in this hierarchy inherit all the required attributes / predicates defined for above classes
Implementation • Any binding allowed which can be mapped to a “canonical form” • Canonical: RDF / Semantic Web • XML needs GRDDL transforms • RDF and RDFa map directly • What do microformats need?
Still to do • Further clarify and agree item type definitions, attributes, predicates • ontology can add more class relations • Place HR-XML entities • Relate to UN/CEFACT CCTS • Agree structure for item hierarchy • Do relationship hierarchy similarly • Construct worked examples
