Resource-sharing in our context covers all kinds of activities, where you share resources (files or bookmarks) via internet with a wide public or within a group (e.g. fellow-learners, participants of a study-program).
The main goal of resource-sharing is to create a common resource-pool for all or groups of learners, which can include text (scripts, presentations, articles, video-lectures etc.)
Features:
- public (accessible to everyone) vs. private (shared only by a specific group or person, e.g. with password-protection)
- grouping and organizing: possibility to organize and structure the resources shared
- description and tagging: possibility to add descriptions and tags (buzzwords) to the resources shared for easier searching and organizing
Resource-sharing can be differentiated into two types:
- file-sharing: sharing files via internet (programs, mulit-media, documents, e-books, etc.)
- social-bookmarking: organize, store and manage bookmarks (references, links to special homepages, files in internet)
Usually any kind of learning-platform would include webspace and the possibility of resource-sharing.
