Retrieval of Education Materials on the World Wide Web: Overview of Projects, Issues, and Directions--1998

Description

Abstract:
The US Department of Education supports numerous public access websites that provide information to educators, administrators, policy makers, and students. The WALDO project, whose goal was to develop tools and techniques for improving access to education materials on the internet and, more specifically, to establish a common framework for indexing and searching across federally funded education sites, was one of several responses to an initiative calling for the provision of "one stop" access to materials on any of these sites. STG's contribution to the project was to evaluate metadata strategies for cataloging and retrieval of education materials and to provide a draft record structure and test suite of cataloged resources.
