CETIS OER Gathering - Glasgow

I recently attended a CETIS one-day event to support the development of collections of open education resources. The day was to look at technical issues around collecting and using third-party OER content in a repository (drawing on the work of the ICoper project) and to look at issues around creating and providing dynamic collections of OERs (event link).

The first Cohere Workshop was held on Wednesday 9 June 2010, in KMi (Knowldge Media Institute) at the Open University (Milton Keynes, UK).

The Cohere workshop had the main objective to make OLnet team members more familiar with Cohere. It ran for 3 and ½ hours and it was organized in three stages:

OER Collective Intelligence widgets: feedback invited

Summary: Part of the OLnet Project's mission is to investigate the socio-technical infrastructure that will assist the movement in pooling its "collective intelligence". We invite feedback from all members of the OER community on the design storyboard introduced below...

CSCW 2010: OLnet and Cohere at Computer Supported Coperative Work 2010 Conference

Cohere has been presented to CSCW10 within the Collective Intelligence Workshop organized by PARC, XRCE, IBM Research, and University of Milano-Bicocca. 

OER Collective Intelligence: User Scenarios

A key part of the OLnet project's mission is to test socio-technical infrastructures that will assist in the development of a Collective Intelligence resource for the OER movement ("OER/CI").

One social/semantic tool that we are developing is Cohere (read article). In the context of OER/CI, here are some draft user scenarios that we are testing...

CSCW is a premier venue for presenting research in the design and use of technologies that affect groups, organizations, and communities. Although work is an important area of focus for the conference, technology is increasingly supporting a wide range of recreational and social activities, and we embrace the growth of the discipline in the areas of Collaboration, Sociality, Computation, and the Web.

CSCW 2010 will bring together top researchers and practitioners who are interested in both the technical and social aspects of collaboration.

Cohere Development and Demo

The OLnet Project is organized in several interconnected research sub-projects that synergically tackle the different research challenges that OLnet is addressing.

Olnet - feedback in a physical space

 

Interesting interoperability of physical and digital networked spaces for capturing understanding about what Olnet is and what it can offer.
