In
order to make learning technology specifications that are
of high quality, it is important that as many potential
consumers of such specifications review them as possible
during the draft process. The AICC encourages anyone with
an interest to comment on existing specifications and
ones that are in development. While not all suggestions
are incorporated, a very large number are used and
discussed. Many comments collected from this website have
greatly improved the quality of AICC specifications. If
you see a project below that interests you, please
contribute.
The
following projects AICC specifications that are currently
in work. Please click on the links below to see the draft
versions of the each project and make comments.
Unless
otherwise specified, these documents are in work and have
not
been formally approved by the AICC membership.
