OER Finder


The OER Finder is a tool that helps users locate freely available educational resources from OpenCourseWare projects like Utah State University OCW, MIT OCW, members of the OCW Consortium, and other open educational projects.

OER Finder harvests data from RSS feeds provided by OER content providers.  The harvester parses metadata from the feeds and stores that information so that users can easily search over freely available educational resources.

The OER Finder is based on the succulent del.icio.us direc.tor, © 2005 Johnvey Hwang and released under the GPL. The OER Finder was remixed by David Wiley © 2005 and is also released under the GPL. Version 0.9 of the OCW Finder was unleashed on the world on July 13, 2005. The OCW data file was last updated December 12, 2005 and will be re-released in July 2007.
