The book describes issues related to the reuse of learning objects and the implementation of learning technology standards for reuse of these learning objects in different contexts (university, commercial, and military) and the human and technical aspects involved. Learning objects are defined as digital entities, available for use or reuse in different learning settings. Human aspects relate to motivation for reuse, organizational incentives, and applied learning scenarios. Technical aspects related to reuse of learning objects include the development of objects, repositories, services of repositories, and technology to exchange learning objects. The research identified dimensions related to use of learning technology standards for reuse such as organizational cultures, learning scenarios, incentives for reuse, work processes, and how learning objects are stored.
