Using free 'open course ware' in DCs
by Subbiah Arunachalam 08 Dec '05

08 Dec '05

Friends: Teachers in Indian (or other developing country) universities, colleges and at least some schools can benefit from the rich course ware offered free by institutions such as MIT, Cambridge, and many others around the world. I read somewhere that thousands of Indians and Chinese are using MIT course ware. Please read the following news story from Peter Suber's blog. --- Teaching teachers to use open courseware JISC reports that the Exchange for Learning (X4L) program has developed resources to help teachers create, use, and share online courseware. >From the announcement: The X4L programme has been developing online teaching materials and exploring the many issues involved in promoting the sharing of such resources. Susan Eales, Programme Manager of the X4L Programme, said: Ensuring staff have the skills to repurpose learning materials was a main aim of the X4L Programme. All projects took this very seriously and have developed some excellent resources to support the staff involved. We have made this special site available in the belief that others may find these materials useful too. The site is a testament to all the dedication and hard work of all those involved in X4L. The materials cover many different kinds of resources, some of which could be used immediately for staff development; others could be used as a basis to create your own staff development materials. The resources have been categorised based on topic, intended user and type of resource. The resources also come with additional information including descriptions of how the resource might be used in a staff development context. Arun [Subbiah Arunachalam]

Dear All, Especially Infolibrarian Lovers...... It is very bad that someone hacked our life line, the Infolibrarian site but still it is accessible if you go directly to http://www.infolibrarian.com/index.htm or any other links like http://www.infolibrarian.com/jobs.htm and click the home Icon to go to the main page. The hacher is too clever to communicate through Infolibrarian.com as he seems to be aware of the power and importance of librarians. Happy Browsing.
