    Sí y no. No cabe duda que el conocimiento abierto favorece la diseminación de todo tipo de información, Pero, precisamente por la gran cantidad de información disponible, se pierden los filtros necesarios de calidad y pueden hacer que nos despistemos en nuestro objetivo principal leyendo mucha "paja" y artículos de relleno que pueden rozar el auto-plagio. Pero, aún así, en general, es mejor tener esa información de libre acceso, y utilizar herramientas informáticas para realizar una primera selección burda de información y, más adelante, a la información que ha sido filtrada de esa manera, volver a filtrarla ya con conciencia propia por cada usuario, en función de las necesidades que tenga en cada momento y de lo que considere más o menos relevante para su investigación, inquietud, necesidad, etc.

    Estoy de acuerdo pero debemos ser capaces de filtrar la información para no perdernos en la gran cantidad de información a la que tenemos de libre acceso.
  • zimbron21 on 25 Nov 14
     
    Tal vez no los resuelva, como se cita en el documento, pero también estoy de acuerdo en que debemos ser críticos, para darle valor a todo tipo de información.

    Now that internet uses are finding themselves with several social networking profiles to manage, it is easy for all that content and information to become nothing more than noise; pointless chatter that takes up vital brain cells and gets in the way of important details.

    Wits University said yesterday that it was partnering edX, a non-profit provider of such online courses that was founded by Harvard University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. edX has more than 200 000 students in Africa who will now be able to access free courses offered by Wits without having to pay a cent.

    this is a good innitiative by Wits, Its good to see African University keeping up with the world trends in education. Considering the cost of education in SA this will make life easier. However acess to broadband and internet is still a problem.

    "Open access to academic research has never been a hotter topic. But it's still held back by myths and misunderstandings repeated by people who should know better. The good news is that open access has been successful enough to attract comment from beyond its circle of pioneers and experts. The bad news is that a disappointing number of policy-makers, journalists and academics opine in public without doing their homework."

    This is a very useful list. My favourite new resource from this list is LeMill. The tools section is a vast and diverse resource for a wide range of free apps and services.

    Many Open Education Resources (OER) have been introduced by governments, universities, and individuals within the past few years. OERs provide teaching and learning materials that are freely available and offered online for anyone to use. Whether you're an instructor, student, or self-learner, you have access to full courses, modules, syllabi, lectures, assignments, quizzes, activities, games, simulations, and tools to create these components.
  • ilanab on 29 Nov 14
     
    Thanks. An extensive list of resources. It may have been easier to use the list if it wasn't categorised only alphabetically but also further grouped into categories. It's still a valuable collection.

    Cool!! It's so valuable to see behind the scenes of a lot of the open (or closed) tools we use. These images, maps, and infographics are really neat and use a lot of data that probably gets forgotten about in a lot of discussions. Thanks for posting!
  • janetw_suiching on 27 Nov 14
     
    Atlas, publications, charts and tables of global information and internet geographies and impacts on information access, information production and information distribution, done over a four year period by Oxford Information Institute. Findings, data, and publication will be published in Open Access formats and platforms. The website is simple but contains lots of information relevant to the topics in Stanford. There are links to external related publications about information geography, access, distribution and production. Very good website. Some limitations include: bias from the two developers and producers as well as institution itself, unknown (not identified) contributors and sponsors.
  • Ignoramus OKMOOC on 30 Nov 14
     
    A very valuable collection demonstrating how economic, political, cultural and linguistic ties impact the flow of knowledge is and information. Of course, such charts do little to explain, why this happens and where a more even distribution of knowledge is desirable. Also, the data that lies behind the visualisations is not always open. Especially vauable are the links to the data collections that are accessible.

    Very good article. He makes good point about journalism being a stronger tool as more people participate.
  • kenlitt on 30 Nov 14
     
    Yes. Very good point about journalism being stronger as more people participate. But, an inherent part of citizen journalism is the consumer's ability to sift through what is news and what is opinion. Who checks the facts with "citizen journalists"?

    Librarian site from New Zealand. It's still far from comprehensive but it can provide a good start if you're looking for stuff to try. FOSS4LIB is a much larger directory of library-specific open-source projects you might also look at.

    I've used Greenstone, Koha, and Wordpress, and while Wordpress is the easiest to use, I find it the least "library-esque" of the three. Koha is excellent once you get started, and has barcode-scanning built in, which can be very useful. Greenstone I've only just started to look at, but is fairly user-friendly once you get started and has a huge community of users that can help with any number of add-ons and tutorials. Great article!
