The Learning Registry project facilitates the sharing of educational resources aligned to Common Core standards by allowing computer systems to exchange metadata about these resources. It emphasizes collaboration among state departments and vendors to improve the availability of aligned learning materials. As a community-driven initiative, it operates on open-source principles and is not a content repository but a technique for integrating new content into existing systems.
