A lot of this work on learning resource metadata is still relevant, though we certainly don't see it in the mainstream any more. The industry doesn't help itself; as Phil Barker writes, "I'm discussing JSON, RDF as JSON-LD, JSON Schema, RDF Schema and schema.org; which are all different things." For our purposes, Javascript Object Notation (JSON) Linked Data (LD), or JSON-LD, os probably the most important. As Barker says, "one of the factors in the big increase in visibility of linked data over that last few years has been the acceptability of JSON-LD to programmers familiar with JSON." Anyhow, this article descends into the weeds pretty quickly - you don't have to follow everything but it's important to remember that this is the plumbing that makes (and will make) a lot of learning applications work together.
