What are we looking for?

• Lessons learned from examples:

– Addressing either OER or MOOC or…

– Openness is addressed separately

– Hard to search

– No or basic distinction in level of knowledge

– Project or institution based

– Maintenance!

Two phases

• Phase 1: get going

• Phase 2: information needed

• Support for both phases

• Match supply and demand

– Content

– Level

• Version 1: focus on reuse

18

Demand and supply

• Level of knowledge needed

– Per OER aspect

• Level of knowledge present

• Refer to human expert available
