OpenLearn Mash-up
The Open Content Community is going from strength to strength. On Thursday, Patrick Mc Andrew presented the new UK Open University open content site - OpenLearn at the OECD project seminar on Open Educational Resources . The site had been launched the previous evening.
On Friday, before the meeting had ended, I received an email from
Tony Hirst
‘Hi Graham’, he said ‘this may interest you - proof of concept openlearn content via rss - string’n'glue learning environment. Go to learning materials, living with the internet (rss derivation described in passing here).’
Interest me it certainly does and impress me also. OK - so Tony probably sat up half the night making this. But in a previous post
I was impressed that the OU were making tools available to help remising. But this mash up shows the real potential for repurposing and reusing open resources in new ways. I love it!
