Hello all, In the work surrounding the creation of LRMI, and doing real world markup on hundreds of works (for a proof of concept project) we have run into a need that isn't adequately addressed by the current Schema.org specification, and has broader applicability than just learning resources (so not appropriate to be included in the LRMI proposed extension). Simply, there is a need for a term that represents the notion of mediaType. When marking up hundreds of educational resources from publishers we have found this to be a commonly used field. Some sample values for that field, based on our set of resources, would be: - Audio CD - Audiotape - Calculator - CD-I - CD-ROM - Diskette - Duplication Master - DVD/ Blu-ray - etc I've cc'ed here Suraiya Suliman who is working on the team that is building a tool to mark up these hundreds of learning resources. Best, Greg -- Greg Grossmeier Education Technology & Policy Coordinator twitter: @g_gerg / identi.ca: @greg / skype: greg.grossmeier
