2. OER movement “..no point duplicating effort to create content that is already available....” (OER Recommendation 6 OLTF Report 2011) Repositories are being filled with OER content eg JORUM, UNOW, MERLOT 1999, the Universitas 21 LRC sought to “make efficiency gains by minimising replication and to reuse the existing unpublished learning and teaching resources that are replicated by universities the world over”. Despite significant backing from VCs the project was terminated in 2006 as a critical mass of users was never achieved (Allen, Kligyte, Bogle & Pursey, 2008). Windle, Wharrad, McCormick, Laverty, Taylor (2010)

3. Sharing vs Reuse Emphasis on enabling the sharing of OER Little known about ‘reuse’ How much reuse actually occurs?

4. RLOs and OER OECD (Pedro, 2008): 41% of OER materials = Learning Objects OER/RLO differences - RLO initiatives focus on development (not discovery/aggregation) Communities - “central to sharing and reuse” Addressing quality and sharing built into design

13. Questions Is it important for OER materials to be reused? Who uses OER and why? What type of OER tends to be reused? Should we be promoting reuse? Implications of OER for healthcare education? Method Collated the data (2006-2010) from 5938 feedback forms from 130 RLOs released between 2003 and 2010

22. Patterns of reuse 1. Transfer – simple transfer to a recipient who reuses resources. 2. Relational – where rich reuse partnerships are established. A recipient institution develops a relationship with us and then extends the depth and richness of the reuse partnership, providing feedback, data and possibly then providing resources in return. 3. Nodal – spread from one institution to another and then from the recipient to another. 4. Ripple - spreading out from a recipient institution at the centre, but continuing to spread through the exposure and recommendation of others. 5. Cloning – a host institution reuses our resources and them begins a programme of development and sharing for themselves.

26. Future work and Implications? Is it important for OER materials to be reused? Who uses OER and why? –telephone interviews to gain better understanding of the reuse communities –how they are using RLOs and other OER –cultural fit and adaptations required What type of OER tends to be reused? –Skills, EBP, pharmacology, learning disability –Attributes of reuse (LOAM tool) Should we be promoting reuse? –Sustainability? Continuing to develop communities of practice around development and sharing Implications of OER for healthcare education? –Dynamic (student centred) digital curriculum map links to OER
