Reserach Portal for Meta

Hello alltogehter,

we all know we have a problem on meta. We have there a lot of 
information but it's hard to find tham, if you don't know exactly what 
you are looking for. Exspecialy in the research / new idea area it's 
hard to find the new things, new projects and so on.

The question is how we can solve that. I think one possible answer is to 
build a Reserach Portal on Meta like theme portals in the wikipedia.

What do you think?
And the more importend question who will help with that? I'm not the 
best portal builder :-)

Re: URGENT: Call of Paper KnowRight 2006 DEADLINE 15.11.05

Actually that could very well be my stuff.

Just for the record, apart being the legal officer at wikimedia, I am 
currently a researcher in law at the CNRS and the University of Paris 2.

Actually Danièle Bourcier, my PhD director, is even in the submission 
commitee.

Too bad for the deadline but I can try to produce something before 
Sunday maybe.

Is it possible to do something about it ?

Security, e-portfolio, availability and language training in an Open education environment

When building software that is to give language education, the issues 
associated with the training material itself is only one aspect of 
bringing it to a public. You have to have the material in order for the 
secondary issues to become relevant. This article is about some of the 
parts that are infrastructural to the delivery of language training as 
developed by the University of Bamberg and reflects discussions and 
thinking that grew over time.

When we discussed about how to do provide access to the training 
material, we discussed several scenario's; individual people using the 
material, schools using the material as exercise material and even 
having a full language course in "Wikiversity". The consequence of all 
this is that people from many organisations will have a need to gain 
access to the educational process data that is needed. To me it is 
obvious that this is certainly as complicated as the development of the 
language training software itself, it is equally obvious that it is best 
to link into existing programs. When these programs are part of an 
international effort to make educational resources available on the 
Internet we are onto a winner.

There are several components that are required. Security for access. 
Security for the educational process data. Availability to the data and 
the software. And it is at least as important that the software can be 
found by the educators and by students.

The last few days I have been looking into this and I found that there 
are many projects that are Open/Free and that can fit the requirements 
that exist. In this it was quite fortunate that I was at the I&I 
conference in the Netherlands where I learned many of the necessary buzz 
words.
