1. Mixing Educational Content: Publisher’s textbooks, teachers materials, open content Leonie Verhoeff

2. The project EdReNe 8th Strategic Seminar, 7th-8th May 2012, Lisbon, Portugal  Nov 2011 – febr 2012  Part of ECK2 programme: remixing educational content  Tools: Metaplus, Wikiwijs delen, Query builder  Participants: Educational publishers, schools, teacher-communities (Digischool)/repository owners  SLO – detailled curriculum description / vocabularies (subjects: Geography & Mathematics)  Kennisnet / Edurep / Wikiwijs  Individual teachers for evaluation of the project

3. Why this project? EdReNe 8th Strategic Seminar, 7th-8th May 2012, Lisbon, Portugal  From other (ECK 1) projects we learned:  Teachers need variation on their basic curriculum  The current search facilities do not provide enough useful teaching material (too much, not appropriate, not good enough) This includes: - general search facilities (the Googles) - specific search facilities (teachers search portals like Wikiwijs)

4. Ambition EdReNe 8th Strategic Seminar, 7th-8th May 2012, Lisbon, Portugal  Achieve a fundamental improvement for the teacher who wants to make a good mix of educational resources and wants to use this mix in an effective way.  2 scenario’s: – A. Search by structure of the textbook – B. Search by subject matter / detailed curriculum description

26. Back to the project : evaluation EdReNe 8th Strategic Seminar, 7th-8th May 2012, Lisbon, Portugal  What did we evaluate  How did we evaluate  What did we learn so far  Next steps

27. Evaluatie van de proeftuinen leermiddelenmix VO Irma van der Neut Marian Kat-de Jong

28. What did we evaluate 1.Questions for the project / programme (ECK2) 2.Questions for teachers 3.Questions for content providors, repository owners and portal builders

29. Questions for teachers 1.Are the 2 search scenario’s (- structure of the textbook or - subject matter / detailed curriculum description) usefull for teachers when they are looking for additional or replacement teaching material? 2.Do teachers get enough and relevant search results when searching by detailed curriculum specifications?

30. How did we evaluate  Sessions with 21 teachers  Demonstration of both scenario’s  Hands-on search excercises and evaluations  Interviews (14) with content owners who offered learning objects.  Interviews with portal builders (both educational publishers and open content owners)  Interviews with metadata editors

31. Some results….. EdReNe 8th Strategic Seminar, 7th-8th May 2012, Lisbon, Portugal  Teachers appreciate searching for additional teaching material by (detailed) curriculum description (convenience, speed, better than Google)  Methodically working teachers prefer scenario A (search from the structure of the textbook)  Teachers expect that from Scenario A additional material found on the publishers website is judged on quality  Teachers expect that additional material is free and open (and easy to access)  Teachers wanted more info (metadata) on the learning objects to judge the individual learning objects (type of material, typical learning time, rating/peer review, …)  Queries build by publishers are not always what teachers wish or expect

32. Results and the future  The results are currently only available for internal use.  We need more investigation  We will start other projects (primary school, vocational training, project linked data)

33. Results – metadata Takes a lot of time Can only be done by specialists on the subject

34. Results – curriculum based vocabularies  Nearly everybody finds it good to have a standard description of the curriculum  A detailed vocabulairy gives better search results  For Mathematics and geography the representation of the curriculum in the pilot was clear but there were remarks on complexcity and details
