Floe Planning

[Jonathan Hung]

Hi Michelle,

Sorry I had missed the meeting in which these topics were discussed, and
I've attempted to catch up by talking to Justin, Dana, and Joanna. Here is
what I have understood based on these discussions and would like to know if
it matches what you were thinking.

1. Build a new demo that shows the following:
- Metadata authoring of an existing learning resource
- Metadata authoring of a new / blank resource (much like the current demo)
- Upon saving, the user can see some effect of the metadata on the content
authored (i.e. a caption track shows along with a video). In this context,
it would also be nice to show some of the other Floe tools (i.e. Learner
Options and Exploration Tool).
- The NOAA demo is a possible example for framing this new demo, although
it doesn't necessarily have to be the NOAA demo with Metadata editing built
in.

2. Show content finding, delivery, and consumption
- in the short term there may not be an implementation of this. Instead,
 we will create some material which supports or illustrates how content is
created, saved, delivered, and filtered.
- this is where we can make connections to video player, saving of learner
options, and searching and filtering learner content

Does this fit with what was discussed? Please add / correct where needed.

- Jon.
