Hello all, as promised yesterday, I have put a set of outline use cases for describing educational and occupational credentials in schema.org into the community group wiki https://www.w3.org/community/eocred-schema/wiki/Use_Cases These very brief outlines of use cases are used to identify what information we need to be able to mark up in schema.org in order to provide meaningful services. These are not full use cases. We are not designing the services, merely enabling them, and so we do not attempt to describe actors, conditions, actions or responses; just sentence or two of context. From each outline we will derive one or two requirements. These are slightly edited from those that I showed in a google doc previously, and I hope that I have addressed the comments that were made on that doc. Thank you especially Stuart and Hugh. Please would *everyone take a look* at these outline use cases and discuss amendments here, and discuss here whether you think there are any important cases missing, or any that could be expressed more clearly. Also, *please indicate which you think are the most important*. You can do that by putting a +1 or a star under the description, or with a message to this list. Don't be too selective, but at the same time don't just star them all. Imagine we could only do half of them: which half would you prioritise? I hope we can do all of them, but this will help us know which to focus on first. The next step will be to work out what are the requirements arising from the highest priority use cases. This is often quite simple. For example, the first use case "Name search for credential: It should be possible to search for and find credentials by the name of the credential" simply requires that we identify what things are educational and occupational credentials and have the means to convey its the name. I hope we can make a start on that pretty soon. All the best, Phil. -- Phil Barker <http://people.pjjk.net/phil>. http://people.pjjk.net/phil PJJK Limited <https://www.pjjk.co.uk>: technology to enhance learning; information systems for education.
