Hi all, On Floe, we've been working on a concept design to act as a straw man and artifact for thinking around.
Framing Floe as a project that approaches inclusive open education resources from a learner role and an educator/producer role allows us to articulate the following goals: On the learner's side, we want to connect users to appropriate resources. Learners should be able to express a learning need/desire, and the system should then: 1) find resources matching that expression, 2) transform existing resources to match that expression, or 3) create a demand for such resources. On the educator's side, we want to enable OER producers to be able to create transformable content through the use of authoring tools/toolkits/utilities that naturally afford the production of inclusive content. (Side note: we also want to explore the idea of crowd sourcing to transform existing resources into other modes) I've put together a mindmap of ideas and considerations for envisioning the Floe design concept. It can be found here: http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Floe+concept+design+mindmap<http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Floe+proof+of+concept+design+mindmap> Over the next while, I'll be taking this soup of ideas and manifesting them into some sketches and wireframes. Thoughts, questions, and feedback are always appreciated, :) Cheers, James
