== Community-based curriculum development == |
|||
As the laptop project will roll out to large groups of people at once, an effective mechanism for collaborative curriculum sharing and development will prove indispensible. |
|||
== Design Challenges == |
|||
=== Sharing data among distinct archives === |
|||
At this time, several teams are engaged with the creation of curriculum sharing websites. This multi-faceted approach should be encouraged as each site will be able to focus on a different subset of user needs, bringing sharing and collaboration behavior to the largest possible number of educators. However, in order to maintain the value of this situation, we need a flexible system for sharing data from multiple archives. |
|||
One such solution may be found in the "sample pool" API being developed by the [http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CcHost ccHost] project. This has allowed media sharing between [http://archive.org/ Archive.org] and [http://ccmixter.org/ ccMixter]. |
|||
We will also need a way to sync up the data coming from communities with less reliable access to the Internet. |
|||
=== Evaluation === |
|||
Among the challenges in creating a useful system for curriculum sharing is the design of an evaluation tool. The best solution will balance the limited time of an educator with the need for meaningful data. |
|||
There is an on-going conversation happening on the [http://teachforward.org/ TeachForward] discussion list titled [http://lists.teachforward.org/pipermail/teachforward-discuss-teachforward.org/2006-November/000072.html The Evaluation Element]. |
