- Abstract:
A group of twenty-two educators and representatives of the e-learning industry met on the campus of the University of California, Irvine, to consider the state of the reuse and sharing of learning-related Web-based material. Brought together with the notion that reuse and sharing of e-learning material had not met the expectations of higher education and the broader world of e-learning, the group discussed how this was becoming a crucial limitation on the growth and impact of education delivered over the Web. Avenues to promote the reuse and open sharing of Web-based materials were explored. This paper, written by Gary Matkin, dean of continuing education at UC Irvine, builds on and extends discussion of the participants.
