Adaptation of Descriptive Metadata for Managing Educational Resources in the GREDOS Repository

In this paper the authors describe a Project entitled "Divulgacion de Recursos Educativos Digitales DIRED" Divulgation of Digital Educational Resources addressed to promoting specific educational resources and mobile apps for educational proposals in order to manage them through the institutional repository of the Salamanca University GREDOS. The authors present a proposal for describing learning objects based on pedagogical information, digital competences and learning styles. The authors also suggest educational information for classifying useful mobile apps. To achieve their suitable access and recovery, the authors focus on the use of Learning Object specific metadata in digital repositories such as LOM Learning Object Metadata. The authors study the metadata mapping necessary to adapt from LOM to Qualified Dublin Core, because this is the standard used in the GREDOS repository built with a DSpace platform. Finally, the authors present their implementation of Learning Object Description in the GREDOS repository.
