4 General Discussion

Please discuss specific questions of feature requests on the related feature wiki pages. This discussion section is only for a general discussion of the project and its realisation.

Schmitz, Tim [tschmitz] 03 APR 2024, The main OER improvements planned for ILIAS 10 were discussed and worked out in a series of workshops from 06 MAR 2024 to 03 APR 2024. For details and minutes, see the corresponding sessions in the Feature Workshop group: workshop 1, workshop 2, workshop 3

Notes on Workshop 2022-12-13

Tödt, Alexandra [atoedt]:

Fred Neuman gave a very helpful and instructive presentation on 2022-12-13.

  • He reflected on the OERinForm-Project. Presented the projects' topical and technical results.
  • The project developes training and consulting products which latched on to the "Producing Content" and "Using Content" scenarios. Which seemed to be a smart and well thought through approach.  

Slides of Fred Neuman OERinForm Plugin

  • Fred presented the plugin he prepared and discussed OIA as an option to get to referatories. 
  • The plugin is presented in the "Export"-tab. It is thus quite hidden and was not widely used. 
  • There is an extensie Checklist to be worked through. This may spook people.
  • Tha OER Harvester presents the opposite, very lightweight approach. Some people think that OER is only produced under grant agreements. 
  • The plugin solves the license issue.
  • For referatories a classification would be important
  • Walk though Plugin: jOAI is the standard, the server that allows being queried. JOAI checks per Cron Job, what is published as OER in ILIAS and then pushes it to the referatory.
  • Fred implemented 3 different variants. 

Questions Fred posed for discussion

  • Offering entire Courses would come with own challenges
  • Should an export-file be offered or online access to resources? With FAU the resources ar linked to a category with Anonymous Access. 
  • How should versioning be dealt with?
