OpenScienceResources Project received Silver Award in IMS Impact Awards

The European Project OpenScienceResources, which is funded by European Commission under the eContentPlus Programme, received the Silver Award in the IMS Impact Awards, an IMS Global Learning Consortium competition. The IMS Global Learning Consortium has more than 160 members (institutions, suppliers, and governments) from all over the world that collaborate on the interoperability between digital content, learning applications, and tools, on the adoption and on the potential learning impact of standards-based digital learning innovations. The award was received during the Learning Impact 2011 Conference, 16-19 Μαίου 2011, Long Beach California and the OSR presentation is available online. ASK offers to the OpenScienceResources Project the ASK Learning Objects Metadata Authoring Toolkit (ASK-LOM-AT), which is used by the participating European Science Centres, so as to characterize their science education digital content with educational Metadata and the ASK Learning Objects Social Tagging (ASK-LOST 2.0) which is used by science education teachers and students to add tags to science education digital content offered by the participating European Science Centres.
