Last blog of the year and the decade December 23, 2009
Posted by vickimcgarvey in : Comms , trackbackI say decade but it depends on where you see a decade starting and ending but I wont get into that. So this is the final round-up of the year, no top 10 list I am afraid.
This week I have been doing a bit of housekeeping updating the Wiki with our outputs of our first metadata review meeting which can be found at http://wiki.ntushare.org/tiki-index.php?page=Metadata+changes and I also posted our review of some of the terminology within our LOR including some changes we would like to make. I have also begun an audit of content that has been produced by CELS Centre for Effective Learning http://www.ntu.ac.uk/cels/ this is to identify content that might be appropriate to go into our LOR or in the learning and teaching collection within the IRep. CELS has facilitated the creation of excellent learning content, for example, presentations, research papers and activities, mainly for the science community but I am sure teaching staff from outside this discipline will find the resources useful as well. This activity will also help to inform our approach to making learning content publicly available but this is still early days.
Before I sign-off I would like to say a big thank you to colleagues at NTU for supporting the project during this busy year in particular the project team and the development and implementation group. I would also like to thank inf-11 programme colleagues and Andy McGregor for their help and support, as well as JISC Legal and CETIS for providing clarity on the issues that I sent them.
I am looking forward to the challenges waiting in next year’s wings, in particular our continued work in the areas of:
- autopopulating metadata
- classification
- harvesting
- implementing creative commons
- staff engagement
Happy Christmas and have a peaceful New Year!
