Dear all
The HEA (Ireland's Higher Education Authority) funded National Digital Learning
Repository (NDLR) in Ireland is a national repository of learning objects,
organised into subject areas known as communities of practice. The NDLR
uses the Intrallect software, which also supports Jorum, to host a wide
variety of re-usable learning objects (RLOs), for use by members of Irish
higher education institutions.
On the 5th September, the Information Skills Community of Practice (ISCoP)
was launched in Dublin. This section of the repository will be home to RLOs to
support the teaching of information literacy.
Even though the ISCoP RLOs will only be available to members of that
community I think that there is a great opportunity for us in the UK to learn a
great deal about the development, organisation and subsequent use of
information literacy RLOs hosted in a repository.
