Defining instructional plan meta-data for a wireless technology enhanced classroom

Abstract

An instructional plan, like a lesson plan, is a strategy made by teachers before starting a class. Instructional Planning Assistant SyStem (IPASS) assists teachers in creating an instructional plan and arranging learning materials for learning activities on the instructional plan. In a wireless technology enhanced classroom (WiTEC), it is important to provide an easy method for resource and class management server (RCMS) to obtain the instructional plan. This investigation defines an instructional plan meta-data to describe the instructional plans, activities, and materials. Additionally, the specifications of an instructional plan package (IPP), which contains the meta-data and physical learning materials files, are presented.
