This UKOER phase 2 project was working closely with the NHS eLearning Repository to explore sharing open educational resources across clinical (i.e. NHS) and academic (i.e. HEI) settings in the UK. We worked with Jorum to look at potential ways to represent OERs in both repositories to increase access to both datasets via access from NHSNet and JANET.

The work of the project built on the excellent partnership established in our previous UKOER phase 1 pilot project, OOER, and extended and embed the good practice development begun in phase 1, together with equivalents such as the eLearning readiness toolkit developed by the NHS.

Alongside this important work, we further developed the concept of a Consent Commons to make sure that the interests of patients and non-patients appearing in clinical recordings used in OERs are fairly represented (in accordance with UK Data Protection and Privacy and Electronic Communications legislation, following the guidelines from the Information Commissioners Office), alongside the copyright and ownership interests - typically represented in, for example, a Creative Commons license.
