Hello WE, A month ago WE (again) kicked off a discussion regarding quality. This discussion included a couple of calls for participation http://groups.google.com/group/wikieducator/browse_thread/thread/66aa1778786ef0ca?hl=en# And we created a page to encourage collaboration http://www.wikieducator.org/WikiEducator:Quality_Assurance_and_Review. This is all good.
I like the approach we have agreed to in addressing quality within WE. I like the idea of using the featured article approach, so WE proposed four featured items; http://www.wikieducator.org/WikiEducator:Quality_Assurance_and_Review#Tasks_and_work_in_progress 1. Featured learning resource 2. Featured reuse materials 3. Featured institution 4. Featured project I recently read an post about quality & learning2.0 and I would agree with what the author states at the end of thier post, what is important is participation and skills. http://elearningtech.blogspot.com/2008/06/instruction-elearning-20-and-quality.html The questions I have for the group looking at quality within WE are; 1. Do you believe that our "quality standard(s)" should primarily encourage participation and wiki based OER skills development? 2. Do you believe that the featured item approach will work to encourage participation and deepen skills? 3. Are there other approaches / items (not mentioned in the discussion so far) we should consider in developing a WE quality initiative?
