Standardization initiatives in the field of learning technologies have produced standards for the interoperability of learning environments and learning management systems. Learning resources based on these standards can be reused, recombined, and adapted to the user. However, these standards follow a content-oriented approach; the process of applying pedagogical concepts is not covered by these standards. In recent years, several approaches for pedagogical and didactical concepts have emerged, but their use within a framework of standards has not yet been consistently resolved. In this paper, a model is presented which combines pedagogical and content-oriented design. The model, based on the Essen Learning Model, is a basis for the reuse and recombination of pedagogical expertise. (Contains 17 references, 3 figures, and 1 table.) (Author)
