Property:Resource Feed URL

What is a Resource Feed URL?

Resource Feed URL is a way to indicate the location of RSS/Atom, OPML, or OAI-PMH endpoints on your site that list your educational resources and relevant metadata in a structured format.

For more information on the problem of OER search and discovery generally, visit the OER search and discovery page.

What counts as a Resource Feed and what doesn't?

Resource feeds are listings of educational resources, either hosted or curated by the site providing the feed.

Why should I add my Resource Feed URL?

Adding your Resource Feed URL will allow other members of the OER community to access and crawl your educational resources. This increases visibility of the resources and therefore the potential educational impact those resources could have.

Addiitionally, ccLearn has developed a prototype educational search tool DiscoverEd. We will be monitoring the list of Resource Feed URLs in ODEPO for great new resources to add to the DiscoverEd search prototype until we can automate the process of adding feeds from this database into DiscoverEd.

To learn more about DiscoverEd, visit the FAQ.

How can I increase the impact and usefulness of my resource feed?

Read ccLearn's FAQ on OER search metadata for best practices on encoding and transport of metadata information in feeds.
