“The UK must have a core of open access learning resources organised in a coherent way to support on-line and blended learning by all higher education institutions and to make it more widely available in non-HE environments.”

Discussion: What technical standards, architectures and tools would be required to make teaching and
learning resources searchable (discoverable), reusable and freely accessible globally? Is there anything we can do simply and cheaply with commonly-used authoring tools to help?
How can we make sure that content is legally ok to share? What do people need to know about creative commons licences? Who should be responsible for checking the copyright, performance rights, data protection etc of the video clip they are about to publish? What should the role of institutions be? What kind of policy in the area of IPR and innovative approaches to copyright could facilitate the growth of OER?
Why do institutions engage (or not engage) in OER initiatives? Why do academics use web2.0 content sharing services like Youtube and Slideshare, and how does that relate to their jobs? How does OER change the existing methods and models for teaching and learning?
What are the existing business models for sustainable open educational content projects? To what extent are the institutional model and community models for OER initiatives compatible and to what extent do they compete? Are there other revenue models within the institutional approach that could be of interest?
Any other concerns on OER initiatives, such as quality assurance of teaching and learning materials, pedagogical issues and accreditation, the importance (or not) of knowing what’s happening to content once its “out there” etc.
