OER Synthesis and Evaluation framework
A separate version of the generic framework was developed to share with the Individual Strand Projects. This went htrough several iterations throughout the year and projects were asked to engage with it at approrpiate intervals.
Some versions are available here:
- 2nd revised version shared with projects in January 2010 Synthesis framework
- Final version collated at the end of the programme August 2010
These pages are taken from the final version of the strand synthesis framework. Each page includes a mixture of summary paragraphs and actual excerpts from project documentation.
