The CD-LOR project, led by Glasgow Caledonian University and funded by JISC, explores the enablers and barriers to the successful uptake of Learning Object Repositories (LORs). Through surveys, community consultations, and the development of structured guidelines, the project identifies key factors like community purpose, coherence, and engagement. Recommendations include aligning repositories with user needs, improving user support, and fostering integration with institutional systems. The findings aim to facilitate effective sharing and management of educational resources across diverse communities.

  1. Community Dimensions of Learning Object Repositories Peter Douglas p.douglas@intrallect.com

  2. CD-LOR project • Funded by the JISC (June 2005-2007) • Lead by the Glasgow Caledonian University (Prof. Allison Littlejohn, Dr. Anoush Margaryan) • Collaborators: • University of Strathclyde (Dr. David Nicol, Dr. Colin Milligan) • Intrallect Ltd. (Dr. Peter Douglas) • 8 Associate partners • 18 national & international collaborative partners • http://www.academy.gcal.ac.uk/cd-lor/

  3. Project Activities • CD-LOR was interested in enablers and barriers to successful uptake of LORs: • Desk Study • Survey of Repository Users (and PRMS Survey) • Community Consultation: • Elicit barriers • Develop Use Cases • Trial and Implement • Outputs • Guidelines for Curators and Managers setting up new repositories • SRU client (Open Source) • Recommendations (for policy and further work)

  4. Barriers • Norms of sharing & collaboration • Size and scope of community • Roles and hierarchies Socio-cultural Pedagogic Organisational & info management Technological • Diversity in approaches to learning • Discipline-specific resources • Curriculum standardisation • ICT skills and information literacy • Incentives and rewards • IPR, DRM, metadata • Quality assurance of resources • User friendly interface • Effective search, storage, preview • Interoperability standards

  5. Community Dimensions Purpose - shared goal/interest of the community Dialogue - modes of communication, e.g. online, face-to-face, or mixed Roles and responsibilities Coherence - whether the community is close-knit or loosely confederated/transient Context - the broader ecology within which the community exists, e.g. professional bodies, governments Rules – e.g. ground rules of conduct, rewards and incentives mechanisms, control of access and use of resources Pedagogy of the community - for example, problem-based learning, collaborative learning.

  6. Repository Dimensions Purpose – e.g. for sharing audio-files, or for preservation of institutional educational resources Subject area – e.g. social work, medicine Scope - departmental, institutional, national, or international Educational sector - school, higher education, further education, lifelong learning Contributors - teachers, students, publishers, support staff, JISC-funded projects Business model - business, trading and management framework underpinning repository

  7. Structured Guidelines • A “how to” guide to implement a repository which meets the needs of your users and their communities (or evaluate existing repository) • Ask the right questions • Consider the likely answers • Understand how ‘Community Dimensions’ inter-relate. • Know how to interpret the answers you get • Take an iterative approach

  8. Recommendations • Better alignment between repositories and communities • LORs should only be introduced if they are a solution to a problem meaningful to users • Appropriate user support strategies should exist • Product innovation should involve process innovation • Curators should try to build multidisciplinary teams

  9. Recommendations LO Repositories would benefit from: • Stronger integration with institutional systems in particular VLEs • ‘the easiest place to put my stuff’ • Integration into personal workflows • Web 2.0 type capabilities, which would facilitate: • Personal management/tagging • Recommendation and usage

  10. Relevant links • Structured Guidelines for Setting up Learning Object Repositorieshttp://academy.gcal.ac.uk/cd-lor/documents/CD-LOR_Structured_Guidelines_v1p0.pdf • Recommendations for future research and development in the area of Learning Object Repositorieshttp://academy.gcal.ac.uk/cd-lor/documents/CD-LOR_FinalRecommendations.pdf • Peter Douglas: p.douglas@intrallect.com • Anoush Margaryan, Allison LittlejohnColin Milligan

  11. Community Building Approaches • How do you define/identify your communities? • Existing communities vs. Building new communities • Single community vs. Multiple communities • Communities changing repositories/repositories changing communities • Introducing new communities • Open vs. closed repositories • External tools vs. internal functionality • What can Intrallect do? • More services/Tools integration/Additional functionality?

  12. The questions! • Question 1. Why are you setting up a learning object repository? [R-Purpose] • Question 2. How many communities do you serve? [C-Composition] • Question 3. What is the purpose of the community that the repository will serve? [C-Purpose] • Question 4. Who are the key actors in the community and who, of these, will contribute to the repository? [C-Roles and R-Contributors] • Question 5. What is the pedagogic approach of the community? [C-Pedagogy] • Question 6. How coherent is the community? [C-Coherence] • Question 7. What are the modes of participation and communication within the community? [C-Dialogue] • Question 8. What is the ecology of the community? [C-Context] • Question 9. What is the business model of the repository? [R-Business model] • Question 10. How do you envision the evolution of your LOR?
