The Educational Testing Service (ETS) administers the Graduate Record Exam (GRE). ETS is also in the business of selling data from the GRE to Universities who want to send recruiting materials to people who score well on the GRE and have declared interest in certain majors.

ETS takes advantage of their leverage in this situation (you can't get into grad school without the GRE, and you can't take the GRE without giving them your info) and makes a profit from it, unbeknownst to you. Given this situation, one might say that ETS does not hold dear the value of:

The background: Imagine you work for a company that wants to create an app to help people with disabilities. The app will be an information system where users can look up a business establishment and find out what kinds of services or physical features might make their visit harder or easier. For example, a person in a wheelchair would need to know that Emilio's Pizza Place has a stoop in the front that is not wheelchair accessible, which would make a visit harder. Or a person who is hard of hearing might like to know that there's a church nearby that provides print copies of the service so that they can read along as the preacher is speaking, which would make a visit easier. In order to be successful, the app needs to have metadata records for all of these business establishments. Each record needs to show the customary business information (name, address, rating, etc.) but the records also need to show users information about the many possible characteristics of a business place that can accommodate or exacerbate the customer experiences of people with all different types of disabilities. With these metadata records, the system would enable users to search for businesses by their type (restaurant, clothing store, video arcade, dry cleaner, etc.) and then filter results based on the businesses' ability to accommodate someone with a certain disability (blind, on crutches, autistic, tremors, etc.). The question: In order to create these records, would your company be better off using a metadata schema that is more towards the standardized end of the spectrum or more towards the customized end of the spectrum?

More towards the customized end of the spectrum
