Use of Repositories of Digital Educational Resources. State of the Art Review. IEEE-RITA Revista Iberoamericana de Tecnologías del Aprendizaje
Abstract:
Repositories of digital educational resources have reached a significant level of development and diversification in the last decade to the point of becoming a component in higher education transformation. This paper presents a state-of-the-art review of the studies about the use and adoption of repositories of digital educational resources. Some quantitative approaches mainly collect metrics related to the publishing and reuse of educational resources. However, there is still insufficient empirical evidence to account for the types of adoption and use of educational repositories. There are few studies aimed at determining which are the dimensions of adoption of educational resources repositories by scholars, how the adoption of educational repositories overlaps in teaching practices, and which subjective, contextual, institutional, curricular, and instructional factors are involved in the different types of use.
