Subject: [Xerte-dev] Xerte on the Apereo programm

Hi all,

Tom Reijnders and I (inge Donkervoort) are visiting the Apereo Conference in Philadelphia USA at the moment and did also a Xerte session yesterday. That went well by the way.

Watching the program of today we are very excited because two of the sessions today are about Xerte and are NOT presented by us :)

Hey it's a MOOC, let's copy and use it!
Presented by: Greg Doyle - University of Cape Town
The globalization of MOOCs has evolved to where it attracts participants from all over the world, expanding access to higher education for the masses. Poorly resourced institutions frequently use these teaching and learning resources as an expansion to what is available at their own institutions. Opportunities for reuse and repurposing through Creative Commons licenses enable modified course content to be re-published at other educational facilities. MOOCS therefore offer productive pathways for expanding educational learning opportunities. The question is how do you convert the content used in a MOOC and run it locally? In this presentation we will share converting and localizing the content an international MOOC on the topic of eye health in Xerte and running it on Sakai. We describe the affordances of Xerte and the opportunities it allows for different modes of delivery.


Assessing Third-Party Tools
Presented by: Jeff Pasch - LMS Product Director, New York University ; Robert Squillace - Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and Educational Technology Liaison, Liberal Studies, NYU
Assessing third party tools: Xerte


We'll keep you informed!

Bye Tom & Inge
