LOM (Learning Object Metadata)

Learning Object Metadata (LOM) is a standardized system for describing educational resources, like online courses, videos, or articles. It includes key information about these resources, such as their title, author, subject, format, and intended audience. This metadata helps users to easily find, organize, and use educational materials by providing essential details. Think of LOM as the tags and descriptions you might find in a library catalog, making it easier for teachers and learners to discover and access the right resources for their needs.
