Session 4: TE CommunitiesJohn van der Baaren (OUNL)

• Local communities daily TE work• ShareTEC: set of services• Supports flow of TE expertise between

communities• Not only access to learning resources• Reuse is very limited, esp. cross border• ShareTEC, web2.0 is not going to help much• We should focus on our users and how they

work in their communities (teach, learn, develop, research)

Some ideas

• Other kinds of documents• Users exchanging knowledge

– Share: products– Help: expertise– Work together: develop new solutions

• Access to commercial services:• Finding combinations with other services

supporting exchange of expertise is essential for Share.TEC.
