Editor's Notes
Content is available in vast amounts, for every topic, in every detail
But sometimes it is hard to retrieve content in the desired quality: Missing metadata Missing content attributes Missing overview Bad user interfaces
And it is often neither accessible nor ready to be re-used No open access no open formats cannot be isolated from context wrong language It is hard to create new content out of existing ones no seamles integration in authoring tools
The collaborative collection and organization of media assets . Media assets comprise individual content elements such as texts, pictures, videos, and audios. These atomic elements form the basis of all content productions. The collaborative creation of learning units based on these media assets . Learning units are navigable and interactive learning contents built out of individual media assets. Preparation for re-use . A background harvesting process, which updates the metadata repository of OICS in order to make updated contents searchable and retrievable, supports the previous two processes.

This prototype utilises the OICS facilities (metadata storage, search services) in order to support re-use based collaborative authoring processes. It covers three sub-processes: 1. The collaborative collection and organization of media assets in the MediaLibrary prototype . Media assets comprise individual content elements such as texts, pictures, videos, and audios. These atomic elements form the basis of all content productions. 2. The collaborative creation of learning units based on these media assets in an online authoring tool . Learning units are navigable and interactive learning contents built out of individual media assets. 3. Preparation for re-use through metadata enrichment . A background harvesting process, which updates the metadata repository of OICS in order to make updated contents searchable and retrievable, supports the previous two processes.
Collect media assets: Pull approach: active harvesting of available content (e.g. Google) Push approach: offering of (user) interfaces to organise and publish content to (e.g. Flickr)
Result: Structured, metatagged media collection maintaining variants and versions of content Organise collections of media assets Add metadata Add search & retrieve functionality
Tooling to create new content out of existing one needed Authoring tool Integration with media library: search, find, re-use assets
Publish results for use and later re-use
Enable access and re-use of media-asset-collection Publish asset metadata to searchable repositories Provide search and access services
