Smith, Marshall S.; Wang, Phoenix M.
Educational Technology, v47 n6 p10-14 Nov-Dec 2007
The success of OER is likely to depend on a flexible, extendable infrastructure that will meet the challenges of an evolving World Wide Web. In this article, the authors examine three key dimensions of this infrastructure--technical, legal/cultural/social/political, and research--and discuss possible directions for development. (Contains 1 table and 12 footnotes.)
