About Otago's Educational Resource Developments

Diagram for the development structure being used by Otago Polytechnic

Most educational resource developments that Otago Polytechnic is contributing to are following the structure depicted in the diagram to the left. This structure is also explained in the video on the right or on Youtube. Basically we are creating a course main page that lists and links out to new pages for each learning objective. Each learning objective page has 2 sub pages:

Library of Resources
Learning Activities.

Below is a page generator that will initiate templates for a new Learning Objective and its two sub pages. Course pages are created and managed manually, drawing from the various learning objective pages to create a course.

Otago Polytechnic contributions that are not using this course and learning objective structure are usually content creation projects such as text books and other information resources. These pages are listed in the Resources subpages for various learning objectives.

Below is a list of development projects initiated by staff at Otago Polytechnic. We have started to use the Category feature in Wikieducator to manage this rapidly growing list, and all pages created using the Otago Template Generator are added to the Category index..

Otago Template Generator

Below is a page generator that will initiate templates for a new Learning Objective and its two sub pages called Resources and Activities. Please type the title of your learning objective in the box below

This Template generator is available as a template called Template:Otago Page Generator
