This document discusses the development of reusable and portable educational content in New Zealand schools. It outlines efforts to break dependencies between content and learning management systems by developing content that can be easily shared and reused across different platforms. A conceptual model was created based on workflow analysis. Wikis were identified as a way to enable authoring, sharing and ensuring interoperability of content. Three work streams were proposed to cover these areas as well as interoperability with multiple learning environments. Challenges around policies, politics and perceptions of open educational resources were also discussed.
