The IEEE P1484.9 Localization Working Group considered localization issues for learning technologies. This includes facilitating human language translations (for instance of learning documents or learning object metadata vocabularies), but also more technical issues (for instance character sets and encodings), as well as more general cultural issues (for instance appropriate icon representations or user interface metaphors). |
Purpose
The purpose was to support the global applicability and understanding of learning technology, so that its appropriate uptake is promoted. The final end users, i.e. the learners, will benefit from this work, as they will be confronted with less inappropriately biased materials. This is especially relevant in the culturally extremely sensitive area of education. |

This group maintained one meeting in year 1999, and four meetings in year 2000. They did not produced any specification.
In the last meeting, December 2000, they decided to hibernate the Working Group because they did not find any special item for learning technologies to continue working. |
