Learning Object Repositories and Digital Repositories

Learning Object Repositories, Digital Repositories, and the Reusable Life of Course Content by Philip Long has just been published in the May issue of Syllabus magazine. "What do learners need? They should be able to draw on digital assets from any resource, or repository, that strikes them as useful—even if the rationale is serendipity—at the exact moment when the learning activity calls for it. Today they can’t do that."
