I was wondering how open educational resources (OER) find their way into the minds of learners. I have some capacity to be able to help, but I would like to learn more.
As background, I've recently begun contracting full time to the Open Knowledge Foundation[0]. One of the projects that the organisation runs is Open Text Book[1]. The project is mostly dormant. I would like to awaken it. However, there are many ebook repositories in existence. I would like advice on the best way to help. Some questions: - Do educators use digital content from non-traditional sources? - What is missing for learners and teachers? - Are things easy enough for people creating learning material to get it into the hands of others?
