Organising assets into a collection makes the asset easily discoverable for the platform users. Collections can also be attached with certain behavioural, discoverable metadata.
Behavioural Metadata:
Any Collection can be made trackable/non-trackable collection by the creator. Non Trackable collection would enable normal consumption for the user. Trackable collection would facilitate the user with content state and progress information. Every action of the user within the content is recorded as content progress and the platform persists the metadata of the usage for further workflows.
Discoverable Metadata:
Any Collection can be part of two frameworks:
a) Organisational Framework: Any Collection source is considered an organisational framework by default. This information is used to display the details along with the content for the users of the platform.
Ex: A Book by NCERT can have Board as NCERT, English Medium, and 9th Grade as Organising framework information.
