ENSURING A CERTAIN LEVEL OF QUALITY OF LEARNING OBJECTS USED IN E-LEARNING IS CRUCIAL TO INCREASE THE CHANCES OF SUCCESS OF AUTOMATED SYSTEMS IN RECOMMENDING OR FINDING THESE RESOURCES. THIS PAPER AIMS TO PRESENT A PROPOSAL FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF A QUALITY MODEL FOR LEARNING OBJECTS BASED ON ISO 9126 INTERNATIONAL STANDARD FOR THE EVALUATION OF SOFTWARE QUALITY. FEATURES INDICATORS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONFORMANCE SUB-CHARACTERISTIC ARE DEFINED. SOME INSTRUMENTS FOR FEATURE EVALUATION ARE ADVISED, WHICH ALLOW COLLECTING EXPERT OPINION ON EVALUATION ITEMS. OTHER QUALITY MODEL FEATURES ARE EVALUATED USING ONLY THE INFORMATION FROM ITS METADATA USING SEMANTIC WEB TECHNOLOGIES. FINALLY, WE PROPOSE AN ONTOLOGY-BASED APPLICATION THAT ALLOWS AUTOMATIC EVALUATION OF A QUALITY FEATURE. IEEE LOM METADATA STANDARD WAS USED IN EXPERIMENTATION, AND THE RESULTS SHOWN THAT MOST OF LEARNING OBJECTS ANALYZED DO NOT COMPLAIN THE STANDARD.
