[Oer-community] Fwd: OER World Map

[Ricardo]

Dear Susan and all,

As an example TESSA (Teacher Education in Sub Saharan Africa)  is
implemented in Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Sudan, Togo,
Uganda and Zambia  and APRELI@  (Association for the Promotion  of African
Open Educational Resources) is implemented in Senegal, Burkina-Fasso, Togo
and shortly in Côte d’Ivoire. Those two kind of OER regard basic education
by now but are trying to be sprayed to secondary school.  

 

OER mapping is very important.

I think an OER world map could be very useful, particularly if it reveals
pertinent characteristics of the OER. 

A geographical map shows distinguishing attributes of a physical location -
cities, towns, roads, railways, rivers, lakes, 


An OER map could show:
- url where OER are publicly available
- OER language
- OER license (Creative Commons, public domain, 
)
- quantity of OER available
- type of OER (such as courses, modules, textbooks, assessments,
simulations, 
)
- academic level such as K-12, higher education, vocational trades,
workplace, 

- credential OER is part of (Bachelors, Certificate, Diploma, badge, 
)
- OER fields of study such as business, health, arts, science, 

- subject area of OER within a field of study eg. Science - biology,
physics, chemistry, 


Even more useful would be an OER world map of the existing and desired
network of an OER.
This map would differentiate between:
- Single entity produced OER (MIT, UKOU, 
)
- Regional consortia produced OER (Open Course Library, TESSA, ...)
- Globally developed OER (Wikieducators OCL4Ed course)
Ideally overlaid on top of this would be an indication of which OER are
seeking co-developers and which are simply being produced for others to use
without interest in co-development.
If an OER world map can lead to greater partnerships among OER
developers/users that would be a great outcome.
