This European Standard for a Curriculum Exchange Format (CEF) specifies a data model in a thesaural based format for exchanging vocabularies relating to curriculum information. It is based partially on an extended application profile of

14、 Zthes version 1.0 http:/zthes.z3950.org but is not restricted to Zthes as an exchange format. It has been produced in the light of implementation experience and the CEF requirements agreed in the CEN Workshop Agreement - Curriculum Exchange Format (CWA 16078, CEN/WS LTS N 576, January 2010). There

15、are three main sets of information in the CEF: information about the whole CEF instance. This is provided using properties from Dublin Core plus some extensions. Information includes date, title, description and identifier; CEF terms. Information including the term name, identifier and type. Though

16、“term” is used throughout as the name for an item in a CEF instance, the model can equally well be used to describe a conceptual approach; relationships between terms as a sub-record of a term. Further information about the background and guidelines on usage can be found in CWA 16078. According to t

17、he CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvi

19、ting to curriculum information. This includes values to be used in metadata to describe learning resources and learner profiles. The main uses of CEF instances and related services are expected to be the provision of: controlled vocabularies; navigation structures; additional curriculum information;

20、 mappings. 2 Data model 2.1 Table headings Label = the preferred name of an element to be used in bindings such as XML. These may vary depending on the binding used. Occ = number of occurrences and obligation. The figure in brackets is the smallest permitted maximum that is the minimum number of val

21、ues (for repeatable elements) a conforming application shall support. It is assumed that when an upper limit is given that is the smallest permitted maximum. Name = the recommended English name that can be presented to users. Some names may not be needed, as they can be implicit in the way that info

22、rmation is presented. A CEF schema could provide alternative names in other languages. 2.2 CEF Information This data model explains the use of various elements (or properties). It does not indicate the order of elements. The following elements are used to describe a Curriculum Exchange Format instan
