Fostering Reuse and Interoperability for the NSDL

该服务项目正在开发一套“最佳实践”文档和资源，以促进NSDL馆藏的可重用性和互操作性。使NSDL内容更容易在多种设置中使用（重用），并且更容易被通用创作工具和交付环境使用（互操作性），从而增加其影响和价值。但是可重用、可互操作的内容与传统Web内容具有不同的设计要求。该项目综合和传播了在这一领域建立起来的大量研究和实践，以促进其应用。主要目标包括：创建和传播通用的NSDL指南和建议的实践，以设计可重用的内容，并使用现有的工具来实现这一目标；根据ENC、MERLOT和MathDL用户社区使用的方法和面临的问题，创建和传播这些指导方针和实践的专门版本；举办有关内容重用和互用性的工作坊；并就集合如何在搜索中公开可重用内容提出建议。本计划所产生的所有资源均适用于整个教育界。

This Services project is developing a suite of "best practices" documents and resources to foster reusability and interoperability of NSDL holdings. Making NSDL content easier to use in multiple settings (reuse) and more capable of being used by common authoring tools and delivery environments (interoperability), increases its impact and value. But reusable, interoperable content has different design requirements than traditional Web content. This project is synthesizing and disseminating the body of research and practice that has built up in this domain in order to foster its application. Major objectives include: creating and disseminating general NSDL guidelines and recommended practices for designing reusable content and using existing tools to do so; creating and disseminating specialized versions of these guidelines and practices tailored to the methods used and issues faced by the ENC, MERLOT and MathDL user communities; conducting workshops on content reuse and interoperability; and developing recommendations for how collections can expose reusable content in searches. All resources produced by this project are applicable to the entire educational community.
