Further movement to OER November 15, 2010

Posted by vickimcgarvey in : Comms , trackback

At our wider meeting we discussed moving towards publishing OERs in our learning repository. A couple of months ago the University changed  its “Copyright and Educational Resources Policy” to accommodate the attachment of a creative commons license to educational resources. Lisa Warburton, the University’s Copyright Advisor has produced an excellent guide to Creative Commons so really colleagues can start to produced OERs now. However, we are still specing  how we can make items open in our learning repository. There are two options make resources open in our NTU repository or  have a separate repository something like NTU Open that just has OER. It looks like the most straightforward approach would be the latter option, resources could then be accessed via their URLs and/or the repository could be harvested. We now need to do some testing.
