JORUM is a JISC -funded collaborative venture in UK Higher and Further Education to collect and share learning and teaching materials, allowing their reuse and repurposing.
The JORUM User service provides access to the shared repository of resources. Teaching and support staff in institutions will be able to find, preview, download, reuse and repurpose materials for use with learners in their institution. They will also find a collection of teaching support, staff development and case study materials to assist them in using the learning materials with students.
JORUM hosts learning and teaching materials of all kinds, ranging from simple one-file assets and links to external resources, to more complex learning objects including content packages. Content will be collated from a number of sources, including publicly funded projects and individual institutions.
To get started using JORUM, simply visit the JORUM login page.
The Multimedia Educational Resource for Learning and On-Line Teaching (MERLOT) is a user-centered, searchable collection of peer reviewed, higher education, online learning materials created by registered members, and a set of faculty development support services. The aim of MERLOT is to provide an online community for HE staff, and students from around the world to share their learning materials and pedagogy.
MERLOT strives to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning by increasing the quantity and quality of peer reviewed online learning materials that academic staff can easily incorporate into courses.
MERLOT activities also include the annual MERLOT International Conference, the Journal of Online Learning and Teaching (JOLT), member publications, news, and its website.
You can register by filling in the MERLOT membership form on their Web site.
