- The OER UCT project which officially commenced in March 2009 and officially ended in February 2010 was an implementation project that grew out of the Shuttleworth Foundation sponsored Opening Scholarship project which aimed at exploring the opportunities that Information Communication Technologies (ICT) and open dissemination models could offer for enhanced communication and more effective knowledge dissemination in one South African university, namely UCT (http://www.cet.uct.ac.za/OpeningScholarship). It paid attention to issues around Open Access, Open Educational Resources and what we termed “Open Community” – the kind of social engagement / responsiveness activities that universities often include in their mission statements alongside Research and Teaching. Proposals for two follow-up implementation projects were presented to the Shuttleworth Foundation to take forward ideas for creating an OER initiative at UCT and for continuing to advocate for Open Access within and beyond UCT. At the same time a separate Health-specific OER initiative sponsored by the Hewlett Foundation which is a collaboration between the University of Michigan, OER Africa, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), the University of Ghana (UG), the University of Cape Town (UCT), and the University of the Western Cape (UWC) (http://www.oerafrica.org/healthproject/HealthProjectHome/tabid/956/Default.aspx).

- Our project is responsible for creating a directory to list and describe open educational resources here at UCT. In addition to have shared materials on websites such as slideshare, it is important to have them catalogued and indexed here at UCT. UCT academics will be able to list and describe their online resources in the local UCT directory – this will automatically lead to an entry in the OER Commons, OER Africa and other international content directories. The listings will include appropriate metadata which will lead to discoverability through search engines. The directory will also ensure we can answer questions such as:Which OERs have been published by person X in my department?What OER content is available from my department?How many OERs are in the UCT Collection?To what extent is my department’s OER output promoting us globally?
