2A/categories/selection type
From Leapspecs
One of the Leap2A categories
See the Leap2A selection type. Use e.g.:
<category scheme="categories:selection_type#" term="Abilities" label="List of skills" />
or in full, without CURIEs,
<category scheme="http://wiki.leapspecs.org/2A/categories/selection_type#" term="CV" label="Résumé" />
Where the content is given as optional, the entry must still conform to the Atom specification, and therefore may need a content element even it is empty.
Contents |
Abilities
The selection represents a list of skill, competency or ability definitions.
The optional content, if present, may be a representation of the top level, or of the complete framework.
The parts are the individual skills/abilities or sub-lists in the framework that are at the first level down from the top level list.
Skills that are further down in a framework, and are parts of a lower-level list, should not be given as parts at the top level.
If it is desired to have all the abilities represented at one level, then the structuring information can be kept only in the content,
and each component ability can be a part of the selection, with none being selections or having parts of their own.
However, if possible, rather than representing a framework as a selection of Abilities, it can be represented more straightforwardly simply as an ability with parts of the same type.
Blog
The selection represents a list of blog entries, or a feed.
The optional content, if present, is a description of the blog purpose and content.
The parts are the individual blog entries.
The order of the entries in a particular blog selection is given through using the
optional display_order or when_added attributes of the whole part relationships.
CV
The selection represents a CV or résumé.
The content (which must be present) is an xhtml (or html) formatted version of the CV.
If any other whole portfolio items are reproduced in or linked from the CV,
it should use the structured content provisions.
The parts are the individual items that may be referred to in the CV.
Folder
The selection represents a general purpose container for files or other items.
The optional content, if present, may be a description of the kind of items contained, or the purpose of the selection.
The parts are the selected items in that folder.
Grouping
The selection represents a set of entries that are grouped together, for any of a number of reasons, not including the more specific reasons associated with the other options.
One specific reason is that the entries are covered by the same exercise,
driven by an interface with rich guidance and structure.
The optional content gives enough context to make sense of the entries.
This may, for example, be text from or describing the exercise interface.
The parts may be entries representing what the user enters in the grouped entries,
or may in turn be Grouping selections at the next level down.
Webpage
The selection represents something like a web page.
The content (which must be present) is the page itself formatted as xhtml (preferred - or, if xhtml is not possible, html).
Where possible, if the content refers to other items,
it should conform to the structured content section of this specification.
The parts are the targets of the links in the page that refer to portfolio items (not links to URLs that are independent).
Externally available web pages, that are not part of the portfolio system, should be represented as resources of type Web.
Website
The selection represents a set of internal items like web pages, created within the portfolio information (i.e. not an external public web site) that can be presented individually and independently.
External web sites should rather be represented as resources of type Web.
