EduResources Weblog--Higher Education Resources Online
This weblog focuses on locating, evaluating, discussing, and providing guidelines to instructional resources for faculty and students in higher education. The emphasis is on free, shared, HE resources. Related topics and news (about commercial resources, K-12 resources, T&D resources, educational technology, digital libraries, distance learning, open source software, metadata standards, cognitive mapping, etc.) will also be discussed--along with occasional excursions into more distant miscellaneous topics in science, computing, and education. The EduResources Weblog operates in conjunction with a broader weblog called The Open Learner about using open knowledge resources across a diversity of subjects, levels, and interests for a wide range of learners and learning communities--students in schools and colleges, home schoolers, hobbyists, vocational learners, retirees, and others.

Most of these reports will be mainly of interest to university administrators in information management positions, but I found the report on Learning Objects by Michael Roy to be of more general interest. Roy's report could be used as an overview of the subject to share with both instructional designers and faculty; he identifies major issues and provides links to the best known LO repositories.  "Learning Object use is almost certainly already happening on your campus, and very likely there are early adopters who are busily creating these materials with or without your knowledge... it is a mistake to not engage with this new way of thinking about instructional technology." All the reports are available as pdf files.  ___JH
