Material Detail

This video was recorded at OCWC Global Conference, Ljubljana 2014. In this paper we present the Edoo initiative that aims for increased involvement of teachers in the process of e-learning materials creation. Its main goal is to connect two distinct communities - teachers as users of e-learning materials and programmers as creators of e-learning materials - through the online portal and learning site designed for support and collaboration. The goal of the initiative is to increase cooperation between the two communities, thus overcoming the domain gap between them. The idea of the initiative was well received among teachers, who are missing appropriate learning materials and lack the ability to adapt existing materials to their specific teaching needs. We started the initiative in spring 2013, while the first collaborative projects are being implemented in the winter semester of 2013/2014. The expected result of the initiative is the creation of quality didactic applications that teachers can use in their classes. Besides, we aim at modular and adaptable educational applications with publicly available source code to enable its customization and further development
