Standards for Learning, Education and Training A Proposal for an Improved Process

The standard setting process within the Learning, Education and Training domain needs to be improved to strengthen the legitimacy of these standards. When new work items are proposed in the domain alternative methods to technical solutions are seldom discussed. This is shown in a small case study presented in this paper. To guide a methods discussion the authors propose a new framework for LET standardisation with constructs from four ontologies and a four-step process. The model is meant as a toolbox to be used to ensure that issues related to both the process and product legitimacy of standards setting are addressed.
