A new discussion has been started by the UNESCO-WSIS community on whether there is a need for an Evidence Hub to pool the Open Educational Resource (OER) movement's collective intelligence. From the look of the discussion, they are thinking of an automatic harvesting system, much like I've run here from time to time. "For instance, we are considering the parsing of blog feeds, tweets and listerv contributions, looking for distinctive tags which would enable automatic indexing within our classification scheme." Unfortunately, the discussion is on the user-hostile WSIS Platform of Communities discussion platform and you'll have to email them and get approved before you can take part. It, you know, keeps the undesirables out.
