  1. VO-raad Netherlands (Board of secondary schools) Innovationplatform from the VO-raad Linda le Grand Ron Zuylen

  2. Secondary education in the Netherlands (Context) • Students are in the age 12-18 years • 1.000.000 students • 750 schools for secondary education

  3. Innovationplatform (Context) Goals • Stimulate the use of open digital content. • Create the opportunity for schools to make a good mix of learning resources • open versus commercial content • digital versus folio content • 2012: enough content to cover all competences • Enlarging the competences of schoolmanagement and teachers

  4. Launched October 2009

  5. VO-content exists out of different collections (context)

  6. Our strategy (I) • We want learners and teachers to use the learning objects. • The teachers that at the moment use Wikiwijs are mainly ‘early adopters’. • The schools of these teachers have positively decided to innovate and use (open) digital content in a substantial percentage of the curriculum, or they experiment on an individual basis.

  7. Our strategy (II) • We need quality besides quantity • Quality in metadata, quality in the content • Teachers are highly interested in curricula and want to understand where a certain learning object ‘belongs’ in the curriculum. This helps teachers to understand how you can use such an object.

  8. Finding curricula Curriculum assist users

  9. Metadata specifications • The educational metadata fields are necessaryforsucess. • Field 9 has a lot of opportunities and in our specifications we made ‘course subject’ and ‘learning level’ mandatory and ‘attainment level’ desirable. • Recently, Kennisnet started a project on metadata specifications and we participate in that.

  10. Quality system for digital content SLO helps us to develop a quality system for open digital content. • How thoroughly and adequate is the metadata? • How do users appreciate the content? • How often is content used? • What do experts think of the content? • Is the learning object part of a larger course/curriculum. • How is the development process of the contentowner structured? Is there a plan? Have the learning objects linkage to each other. • Is the development supervised? Is the learning object tried out in the field? • The thinking on this part is not over, but we hope to implement the first part of it in September.

  11. Content andlearning objects • We look for collections and contact the owner. • We try to have them published their material on Wikiwijs under a creative commons licence. • We aim at aggregation level 2+, 3 and 4. • Our users at the moment are ‘consumers’ instead of ‘prosumers’ and are looking for ‘out-of-the-box’ content to use in their classes.
