Editing and publication of open educational materials in higher education: two pilot test at the UOC
In 2011, at the Open University of Catalonia ( UOC), have been developed two APLICA innovation projects related to axis 2 of the UOC on teaching materials/content management. The first project, "Authorship model for Open Learning Resource for versioning (RAO)", led by Professor Marcelo Fabian, and "Creating and Editing educational materials in the cloud", led by Professor Enric Mor.
Both projects share a common tool for MediaWiki consisting of a set of templates that allow authoring with a didactic treatment. It has been added also a set of plugins to automate the publication of such content on the Internet and to generate multiple outputs and formats for these files (pdf, ebook, web, wiki). This tool is explained in the video.
