    After reading this blog post, critique a library web site near you (you can use University of Manitoba Libraries, or your own institutional library, or somewhere else). Are libraries repositories or referactories? Can you find examples of both (a library that is a repository, and a library that is referactory). Rant on your blog for this week.

      Hi Robert I agree that diametric between 'mass circulation' and regionally/culturally specific OERs is a real conflict. Maybe that's why OER like BCCampus free leearning (http://freelearning.bccampus.ca/) or the the Commons repository (literature and research devoted to Commons materials) work so much better than the mass produced ones.

      Hello Ms. Unruh. Glad to get your DIIGO note. Are we going to be using Zotero at all. I haven't seen anything in it and it intrigues me.But of course we need a puprose. I will check the BCCCAmpus link soon

      I had no plans for Zotero, but I do like the program and can certainly start to integrate it. Give me some time this week to set up a group and figure out how to share it with the class.

    More rantings for the OER course

    Just looked through the freelearning.bcccampus.ca site and was underwhelmed. Many links pointed to resources already known to most such as Wikivestiy and Flat world project. The BC opencourseware link points to the Capilano University site which provided some resources but not anywhere near an exhaustive list. Since BC has been at the forefront of distance and online learning and this is the state of their QER offerings, I think this does not bode well for less progressive regions or Provinces that have less funding

    My blog originally created for Intro to Emerging Technologies for Learning. I'm not a huge fan of blogs unless they have some utility and shooting my thoughts out there does not ammount to a utility. That said, it seems necessary these days to have a presence on the web so there I am.

  • Why are you interested in OERs? What can we do with them that we cannot do under our current system?

      Blog for this week . . .
  • OERs, like blogs, wikis, podcasts, and other ideas and tools are daily blips in the long term trend of how we are interacting differently with information and with each other. OERs have not yet achieved divine status. I don’t think they will.

  • Who is using the resources? How are they being used? I’ve heard of Chinese students translating entire MIT courses into Chinese. How common is this? What is the impact of these courses? Why are students taking them? For personal interest or part of an academic program? And how will we sustain these initiatives? We need more research on the actual impact.

Seven complex lessons in education or the future - 1 views

    "The predominance of fragmented learning divided up into disciplines often makes us unable to connect parts and wholes; it should be replaced by learning that can grasp subjects within their context, their complex, their totality."

    Thanks for this Scott. I read recently that it is not the ability to attend to multiple activities when multitasking that is so detrimental to learning it is the lack of ability to concentrate. Read it on a Ed blog. I will see if I can find it
