2. Commercial publishers enter the
Educational Content Chain
Drivers:
• Pressure of Wikiwijs / open content ?
• Shrinking sales -20% ?
• Leadership of the (secundary) school’s management ?
• New business ?

3. Commercial publishers – discussion
themes
• Granularity; (Folio) Methods vs. Learning objects
• Findeability vs. metadata quality
• Identity based search
• Measuring ‘distribution channel’ indicators (leads, clicks, orders)
• Business case:
• Investments in ICT, in personnel, in processes
• How can we make money from this new distribution channel

4. Insight: teacher do need learning
lines, not single learning objects (LO)
• the ‘good-old’ folio method is the
‘learning line’
• Digital LO are additional
Folio-era
• Learning line will be the backbone
• Folio and LO mixed in an optimum mixture
• Freedom for the teacher to replace parts of the learning

• reason: differentiate & extra content/activities
• mostly by themselves, 50% with close colleagues, < 10%
with collegues from other schools
• 90% shares most of their resources
• almost exclusevily with near colleagues
• <5% through dedicated sites/services

15. Questions
what is the reason to use open/flexible learning resources?
• explaining, excercicing (remediating, testing)
Why?
• it is are more fun
• connects beter to the interest of students
• are more “in depth”
How?
• are used in projects, are often digital
• adaptebility is of importance
how do we label the materials in a way that will help
answering the design need of a teacher? (-> metadata &
interface)
