# CASE Items

## CASE and CaseItems Documentation

This documentation is based on the 1EdTech Standard, providing essential information about CASE and its components, particularly focusing on CaseItems.

### Introduction

The Competencies and Academic Standards Exchange (CASE) provides a standard way to exchange information about learning competencies and standards.

### Key Components

* **CASE**: A framework that allows the packaging of learning standards and competencies in a digitally consumable format.
* **CaseItems**: Building blocks within the CASE framework; these are the nodes that contain information about specific competencies or standards.

### Usage

It is crucial to understand and frequently refer to "CaseItem" as it is the fundamental principle of how learning standards are structured and disseminated using the CASE model.
