The OER World Map: Adolescence of a Community Platform for the OER Movement
The document discusses the OER World Map, which acts as a directory of the global open education movement by cataloging people, organizations, projects, events and resources. It aims to be a collective learning opportunity and allow users to find other open education actors to connect with. The map has various target groups and collects data both manually and through automated APIs from other open education services. It is working on growing its network of country champions to improve data collection and develop more granular country maps. The goal is for the OER World Map to continuously improve and expand as a collaborative community effort.

As an OER actor I would like to find other OER actors and connect with them, so that I can cooperate in a coordinated way and share resources and knowledge with them. 2. As a teacher or learner I would like to get qualified, complete and current lists of existing OER offers, so that I can easily find open resources, which fit to my current learning or teaching context. 3. As an OER policy maker I would like to get meaningful statistics and oversights on the status of the OER movement in order to take and defend decisions in favour of OER.
