• Beginning: Where did it all got started?
• Then: Some content can really be reused by
teachers from different countries
– ... but what makes them travel well, and
– how can they be found and shared easily?
• Future: Can social help?
EUN + «Travel well» learning resources
www.europeanschoolnet.org
• Sharing and reuse of digital learning resources are the
drivers of a “learning object economy”
-> Sharing learning resources metadata to improve reuse
• Economy of scale: “if we all share the content, production
costs per unit go down”
• Did anyone ask: “Do teachers think learning resources
from a country other than their own are useful for
education?
Where did it all get started?
www.europeanschoolnet.org
• We had gained understanding that some content is more
useful than other..
• e.g. science, cross-curriculum
topics, language learning
• BUT what makes them
“Travel well”?
– well searchable multilingual
metadata, size, type, topic??
Then....

Why is multilingual search a challenge?
www.europeanschoolnet.org
www.europeanschoolnet.org
This is what the end user sees
www.europeanschoolnet.org
Discovering learning resources across language boundaries is challenging!
Main problem: the resource & its metadata description are made in a different context from where the resource is discovered and/or
actually used
The other part of the problem (?)
www.europeanschoolnet.org
Learning resources from
different countries and
in different languages do not cross-reference via hyperlinks!
Part of the problematics..

New patterns start emerging...
www.europeanschoolnet.org
Spanish resource
Tag «interactive»
Finnish resource
Slovakian resource
Tags create link-structures between content in different languages
www.europeanschoolnet.org
Austria
Hungary
Finland
Resource that «Travels well»
Tags create links between users in different countries (and languages)
www.europeanschoolnet.org
Thanks to tags and “social traces”, novel ways of cross-language discovery of learning resources can
be thought....
this paves the way for recommender systems, social navigation and
better ranking systems
Future vision: let’s rely on new way of finding «Travel well» resources..

To sum up..
www.europeanschoolnet.org
We started with the scarcity of resources

Then there was an abandunce of them...
