The term t-learning refers to interactive access of video-rich learning materials, primarily within the home, through a digital TV set-top box. The effective development of t-learning systems and applications should be based on existing standardization efforts in the fields of digital TV and e-learning. In this paper we examine the compatibility between the international standard for digital TV (TV-Anytime) and the international standard for e-learning (SCORM). The purpose is to provide a methodology for interoperability between educational applications in digital TV environments and to facilitate the creation of educational metadata for digital TV programs. The approach is also applicable in audiovisual digital libraries providing educational services to their users. We also describe an implementation of the mapping between the two standards. The implementation allows the transformation of TV-Anytime metadata to SCO metadata for the creation of SCORM compatible courses that utilize educational material from TV programs.
