The Authorship in the Production of Open Educational Resources in the Multinational Context

The concept of authorship related to the new technologies of information and communication, especially when created collaboratively, draws a discussion that presents different legal interpretations in the relations between different nations. The production of open educational resources is not a multinational context involving authors who bring with them the legal framework they are subject to. Discussing the legal elements involved with authors of a work produced in digital pallet becomes necessary for a definition of the future of the work. The resource produced in a collaborative way presents challenges not understood and adoption of a single legal proposal there are no clear legal milestones for authorship of multinational collaborative works. Copyright is suitable for this new production of collaborative works. This article presents the legal elements and how they influence the production of open educational resources, especially in the production of open text textbooks, and their production should be observed and discussed previously, in order to avoid future legal demands and evolve the legal concepts involved between different nations.Sociedad Argentina de Informática e Investigación Operativa (SADIO

Using Conceptual Lattices to Represent Fine Granular Learning Objects through SCORM Meta-Objects

Abstract: Ideally, learning resources should be built over a shared pool of fine reusable granular learning objects. However, in order to avoid contextual lacks, dynamic creation of such resources would mostly rely on the conceptual relationships among learning objects inside a repository. These conceptual relationships, as well as the learning objects creation, are best established if students ’ learning styles are considered. Common standards like Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) do not have tools to provide conceptual relationships among fine granular learning objects. This paper presents a conceptual lattice-based architecture for using SCORM to provide an effective mapping of conceptual relationships among learning objects
