Abstract:
Digital resource sharing is a contemporary trend in Medical Education. State-of-the-art digital resources are incrementally appearing in the majority of curriculums worldwide. Institutional repositories have been initiated and metadata descriptions of digital resources have been turned into standards, however sharing, retrieval and re-use across different institutions are still at infant stage, due to the lack of appropriate tools and the cost of metadata creation. To this extend the aim of this paper is to propose a user-friendly editor for the creation of Healthcare Learning Object Metadata (H-LOM), an ANSI standard by MedBiquitous, to enhance the educational sharing and retrieval of digital health resources.
