Simulation Interface Standards (Study Group)
Joint Activity with SISO SAC. This study group will evaluate the rapidly changing instructional standards and simulation standards environment and to look at whether additional standards are appropriate and feasible for interfacing instructional systems with simulation systems. In particular, the study group will evaluate existing and emerging standards for distributed training (to include IEEE 1484.12 Learning Object Metadata, SCORM 2004 and emerging extensions to SCORM such as Sharable State Persistence, and related IMS standards) and existing and emerging standards for simulation (to include IEEE 1516 (High Level Architecture) and IEEE 1278.1 (Distributed Interactive Simulations). It will determine whether interface standards can help to facilitate the instructional aspects of simulations both by shaping the learner’s experience in the simulation to achieve instructional goals and to extract appropriate instructional assessment data from the simulations.
The study group chair is Geoffrey Frank (gaf@rti.org). Katherine Morse (morsek@saic.com) is the contact for SISO SAC. If you are interested in participating, please send email to Geoffrey or to robby@computer.org.
INITIAL MEETING AND CALL FOR POSITION PAPERS: An initial meeting will take place February 2 - 3 in San Diego, California, in conjunction with an AICC meeting. A call for position papers has been issued for that meeting. Meeting logistics are in the call for papers and are updated on the AICC meeting site.
Position papers and presentations from February, 2006. (Future)
