6、f IEEE Std 1484.1-2003, IEEE Standard for Learning TechnologyLearning TechnologySystems Architecture (LTSA).The Learning Systems Technology Architecture (LTSA) is an architecture based on abstract components.Higher-level abstractions can be “implemented” in lower levels: either as lower-level abstra

7、ctions, or asactual implementations.Learning technology systems (“implementations”) can be mapped to/from LTSA. The boundaries, func-tions, and decomposition of actual or other abstract learning technology systems might not have the samestructure as LTSA, i.e., the mapping to LTSA might not be “one-

8、to-one” (in the mathematical sense). Not alllearning technology systems will have all components of LTSA, i.e., the mapping to LTSA might not be“onto” (in the mathematical sense).The LTSA is intended to have wide applicability to learning technology systems. No particular generationtechnology is imp

9、lied with LTSA, so LTSA might apply to the past (e.g., historic systems of 10, 30, and 100years ago), the present (e.g., existing systems), and future (e.g., systems of 10 years from now).The LTSA was developed (19962002) in the IEEE 1484.1 Architecture and Reference Model WorkingGroup of the IEEE L

Overview1.1 ScopeThis standard specifies a high-level architecture for information technology-supported learning, education,and trainin

23、g systems that describes the high-level system design and the components of these systems. Thisstandard covers a wide range of systems, commonly known as learning technology, education and trainingtechnology, computer-based training, computer assisted instruction, intelligent tutoring, etc. This sta

24、ndard ispedagogically neutral, content-neutral, culturally neutral, implementation-neutral, and platform-neutral.This standard provides a framework for understanding existing and future systems, promotes interoperabil-ity and portability by identifying abstract, high-level system interfaces, and inc

25、orporates a technical horizon(applicability) of at least 510 years while remaining adaptable to new technologies and learning technologysystems. This standard will facilitate the development of configuration guidelines (e.g., profiles) for generallearning technology systems. This standard is neither

26、 prescriptive nor exclusive.1.2 PurposeIn general, the purpose of developing system architectures is to create high-level frameworks for understand-ing certain kinds of systems, their subsystems, and their interactions with related systems, i.e., more than onearchitecture is possible.An architecture

27、 is not a blueprint for designing a single system, but a framework for designing a range ofsystems over time, and for the analysis and comparison of these systems, i.e., an architecture is used foranalysis and communication.By revealing the shared components of different systems at the right level o

28、f generality, an architecture pro-motes the design and implementation of components and subsystems that are reusable, cost-effective andadaptable, i.e., abstract, high-level interoperability interfaces and services are identified.The architectural framework developed in this standard does not addres

29、s the specific implementation detailsnecessary to create learning technology system components.IEEEStd 1484.1-2003 IEEE STANDARD FOR LEARNING TECHNOLOGY2Copyright 2003 IEEE.

30、mative wording:This wording places technical requirements on conforming implementationsnormative wording is the essence of this standard. Conformity assessment (e.g., conformance test-ing) is based solely on normative wording. Normative wording excludes introductory material, over-view, rationale, f

31、ootnotes, examples, bibliography, and informative clauses, subclauses, and annexes.Informative wording:This wording is helpful, but not required, for understanding this document. Thenotes given provide clarification of the text, examples, and guidancethey do not contain technicalrequirements and do

32、not form an integral part of this standard.1.4 Document organization (road map)The following is an overview of each clause and annex appearing in this standard.
