Standard for Learning Object Metadata

The Standard for Learning Object Metadata (LOM) is a framework that provides a consistent way to describe educational resources, like online lessons or videos. It includes details such as the title, author, subject, and what skills or knowledge the resource covers. This standardized information helps teachers, students, and systems find, organize, and use learning materials more efficiently across different platforms and contexts. Essentially, LOM acts as a detailed label or data sheet that makes educational content easier to discover, manage, and share.
