Information about Reusable Learning Objects (RLO) and Open Educational Resources (OER)
RLOs and OERs offer educators the opportunity to embed pre-created applicable learning content directly into the course material. Their use is becoming ever more widespread as universities benefit from the advantages of both creating learning objects and repurposing existing material; enriching the student experience and impacting positively on recruitment, retention and progression within the institution.

Have you ever wondered where the large green button on a photocopier came from? You might assume it was a design or engineering decision made early on in the development of the photocopier. In fact, it emerged as the result of an ethnographic study of office workers using photocopiers and their struggles in getting them to do what they wanted. The employment of anthropologists (those who study the science of humanity) to address this problem helped turn what was fast becoming an embarrassingly poor user experience into a simple and elegant solution. So elegant, in fact, my question probably felt like a very strange one indeed!

"Screencasting is the process of capturing the screen interactions on your computer - usually along with an audio narrative. It's been a very effective method for creating screen based tutorials on computer for a number of years. With the advent of screencasting apps on the iPad, screencasting has now become a great option for the creation of multimedia student presentations." Via John Evans

2012’s three editions of Inform brought together a wide variety of stories designed to focus on the issues that readers say matter most. You asked for stories on tools and techniques to help you do more with less as budget cuts bite harder. You also encouraged us to focus on the crucial issues of enhancing the student experience and student engagement as they become paying customers and realise that they are in the driving seat when it comes to demanding value.
