“…In order to work with content packages easily and efficiently, Kavcic (2011) has emphasized the need for a range of tools that makes the preparation, arrangement, validation, and the play of the content packages easier. Also, in spite of the presence of a limited amount of authoring tools, authoring tools that allow the easy creation of LOs compatible with industry standards are required (Ramanathan et al 2011). In his study, Watson (2010) suggested that teachers should be provided technical support when sharing, shuffling, reusing, and repurposing the existing LOs.…”

This study reports the design and evaluation process of an authoring tool that is developed for content developers and/or instructors to be able to reuse and repackage existing learning objects (LOs) according to existing instructional needs. The evaluation process included the usability and efficiency of this authoring tool with a sample group of 20 students working at the time of study through their master and/or doctoral degrees in the department of computer education and instructional technologies at a college of education. Tasks in the study included determining instructional needs, searching LOs in various repositories, and repackaging existing LOs by repurposing them. Finally, both quantitative and qualitative data were collected to assess the efficiency and the effectiveness of the tool by soliciting users' experiences. As a result of the study, it was determined that this tool is a practical content development and packaging tool for content developers and/or instructors. Suggestions concerning properties of similar authoring tools are reported and discussed as to reusability in various smart learning environments (SLE) by organizing content based on various instructional needs.

Reusable learning objects for nurse education: development, evaluation, challenges and recommendations

Online resources are expected within healthcare education, and a plethora of online or technology-based delivery methods are available. Reusable learning objects (RLOs) are a form of digitally supported education that can be used multiple times in various locations; they are especially favoured by nurses. Little is understood about the issues involved in their creation. This article examines the development of an RLO in respiratory physiology for first-year nurses and how those creating it worked together. Feedback during the development of the RLO was gathered over 1 year from academics, technologists and students. Issues that arose included variations and misunderstanding regarding terminology and academics' not appreciating the time it took to develop the resource and its potential. Practical matters included sourcing royalty-free or in-house images, record-keeping and version control, and addressing production logic in case developers moved to other projects. It is important to include students during the design process rather than in just evaluating the final product because user experience and navigation have to be considered together with pedagogical content. Addressing these issues when developing an RLO will help streamline the process and generate a student-focused output.
