Hello, all.

 

Hopefully everyone had an enjoyable summer.

 

I finally took some time to try a cut and paste job from the Oklahoma OER libguide to the mediawiki:

 

http://guides.ou.edu/OER/history

 

https://mediawiki.bccampus.ca/index.php/HistoryOERR

 

After re-acquainting myself with the syntax I would say it will be an easy enough transfer, but will require some editing and selection. Some items are outdated and others just point to generic sources like Merlot and so forth. I didn’t bother with every hyperlink on each resource description I copied – just the title and CC license links. Still a few items that should be added to this history section, but hopefully you get the idea.

 

Finally, since this is an adaption of a CC BY-SA work, I included an attribution statement and license information at the bottom of the page.

 

Looks like we have a meeting coming up sometime in September, so perhaps more discussion on this then? In the meantime, I’ll try to carve out some time to tackle more now that I know what is entailed.

 

-Martin
