There are networks at all levels, both creating and looking for materials.

Communities developing learning materials

  • Academics : ed schools, universities
  • Educators: teaching colleges, administrators
  • Teachers : Associations, unions, PTAs
  • Parents : PTAs (again), support groups, childcare networks
  • Out-of-school support: Unschooling, groups of children outside school (who can't afford it, working full-time, &c)
  • Pop: authors, radio personalities targeting parents w/kids

Organizations looking into learning materials

including curricula, spreading books and libraries and tools and computers

  • IEARN
  • OER Commons
  • World Computer Exchange?
