JorumOpen is Implemented on Our Development System June 25, 2010
Posted by vickimcgarvey in : Comms , trackbackWe have successfully implemented JorumOpen on our Development system this week. Now that we can see how it works we can plan how we can support staff with its use. As I have already said MERLOT is fully integrated within our Learning Repository tool which means that staff can directly link to the resources that they find within their courses. JorumOpen is different because we are harvesting, which means occasionally staff may get a link straight to the resource but in most cases they retrieve the metadata record if it gives the link to the resource, staff can cut and paste it within their courses, but if this option is not there and there is only preview, download and export, this makes things a little bit tricky. On top of the clear guidance we need to provide on how to use JorumOpen – some which is available from Jorum, our learning repository tool has a rating system so I was thinking we could use this in some way to encourage staff to comment on how easy it is to access the resource in JorumOpen, when they find it.
