Promoting OERs through Open Repositories and Social Networks
Download as PPT, PDF2 likes491 views
The document discusses promoting the creation, sharing, and use of open educational resources (OERs) through open repositories and social networks. It notes that OERs are abundant but may not be reused due to issues like language, standards, and lack of editing tools. Repositories mainly function institutionally and are managed by librarians rather than being user-centered. The document advocates for repositories that integrate OERs into the learning process and are learner-centered, allowing users to find, share, comment on, rate, tag, and subscribe to resources. The goal is to turn repositories into communities of practice that continuously support learning.
