Oops. Sorry - accidental send..

Hi all

Would this depend on the granularity of the object? A whole course from MIT or OU probably doesn't need packaging and put elsewhere, so the one place might be suitable for both 'users' and 'reusers'. 

Not sure if data exists but a) do learners value the finer little OERs (might be a separate debate) b) is google THE 'aggregator' or 'finder', as this might inform the debate. 

I'm also thinking the 'sharer' may be reluctant to upload twice, so as has already been suggested it may be beneficial if the content is uploaded to a single place with 2 front ends - 1 for users and 1 for reusers?

Just thinking aloud...

Kind regards

Peter

We are also producing a series of OER 'revisualisations' to showcase the innovative things that can be done with open content to inspire academic debate. These are taking the form of KML layers, timelines, graphical representations of Wikipedia edits etc. The teachers and learners are more interested in using these embedded within some kind of educational activity or with the context of a blog post, however we are putting the source files and spreadsheets up in Git so developers and the more techy-minded user can re-edit the code and republish.
