Resource Control and Containment

Much Energy has been expended exploring ways to control and constrain the use of video, audio, pictures and text that, while appropriate for educational use purposes, due to copyright restrictions, should only be made accessible at certain moments, durations, locations, and for users in certain roles or statuses...

Focus has been on Digital Rights Management

This is a very complex area, especially when you apply it to the Research and Education context.

Critics say that DRM has been unbalanced in favor of the rights of the content creator/owner in contrast to the rights of the user/consumer.

The term DRM itself has become contestedAs already noted, many DRM opponents consider "digital rights management" to be a misnomer. They argue that DRM manages rights (or access) the same way prison manages freedom and often refer to it as "digital restrictions management". Alternatively, ZDNet Executive Editor David Berlind suggests the term "Content Restriction, Annulment and Protection" or "CRAP" for short

from wikipedia entry on DRM11

A Shift Occurring in Content Use Goals?

Locate, Collate, Rate, Annotate, Educate

We are experiencing a profound shift away from containment and control of resources and toward systems that will enable the following educational content uses....

12

What do we mean by open?

“...educational materials and resources offered freely and openly for anyone to use and under some license to re-mix, improve and redistribute.”

• free, as in no fees, does not mean open

• open access does not mean openly licensed

Who Uses Moodle?

In the U.S., Moodle has been adopted by many Liberal Arts Colleges, such as Bryn Mawr,

Carlton, DePauw, Lewis and Clark, Macalester, Reed, and Smith, as well as numerous

larger schools such as U.C.L.A., San Francisco State, The University of Georgia, The

University of Minnesota, and many others. Moodle doubled its growth among US

community colleges last year.

In addition to its extensive use in schools in Australia and New Zealand, Moodle is widely

used in Europe, especially in Spain and the U.K. One of the largest Moodle installation in

the world is the Open University in the U.K. with over 200,000 students using Moodle.

There are 251 registered sites with more than 10,000 users. The site with the most users

is moodle.org with 49 courses and 404,074 users.

Moodle is surprisingly popular as corporate LMS

Building Our CREd Ability

Bloggers - our “Committee of Correspondence” “Ask an Expert” online chat sessions (could include

video and slides from presenters) Content Discovery - materials you know of that the

broader group could benefit from - add to catalog Content creation - use eXe and make modules to

share with others Pilot testers to try out portfolios, perhaps create

student authored peer-reviewed publication

80

Think Pair Share

Building our CRETE CREd Ability Sharing existing content Creating new, specially tailored content Ideas on how to make this happen...
