Editor's Notes
- #13 And floods have a tendency to be pretty unorganized. Floodwaters have formed into numerous isolated drinking holes.
- #15 Pools of available resources are loosely aligned to the progressive skills we are working to develop.
- #16 In Illinois, we want to embed less restrictive content search within “learning maps”. OER & proprietary. Let the best resources win.
- #21 LRMI is not alone in the Learning Resource metadata space…
- #29 Update names and emails
