Math & MathML in HTML documents are important for displaying educational content. I compared the current native MathML support in modern web browsers. See the results here.

Presentation from Open Ed 2012 about our “Everything In, Everything Out, Everywhere” strategy for Open Education Resources (OER)

• Open Ed 2012 Vancouver: “Share Everywhere: Creating Content with Legs”

The live tools:

If you want to see the conversions in action, create an account at the Open Repository cnx.org and start importing and transforming your Google Docs, Word or MS Office files or even webpages to an Open Educational platform here: remix.oerpub.org

We are adding a new OER WYSIWYG editor:

See some videos of our work with the editor:

• Educational elements, drag and drop (2 minutes)
• Math editing video (2 minutes)
• Navigation and linking (1 minute)
• Tables editing (1 minute)
• Adding images with source, titles, captions, and accessibility (3 minutes)
• The full import/ alpha edit/upload process (2 minutes)

Kathi Fletcher’s blog has preliminary results of testing the editor at Open Ed

We are proud to present our newest OERPUB importers at Open Education for Education 2012 in Vancouver!

We are currently mapping and transforming all of these different sources to HTML5 for educational content. The structure is designed for easy remixing. You will soon be able to edit, compose and remix this HTML5 with a browser based online editor. We are testing it here at Open Ed. Come help us in room C215 at 2:00 pm Tuesday, 1:30 pm Wednesday, or 10:30am on Thursday!

Welcome to OERPUB!
=================
We are a community that discuss and develop open source technology focused on designing, and implementing “An architecture for remixable Open Educational Resources (OER)”. OERPUB is not single project but a collective where open source projects with the same goals can discuss the tools and architectures that work best for authoring, adapting, remixing, and publishing open education resources and then delivering them to the web, mobile, tablet, and print.  If you are interested in advancing the tools that education authors use to create, remix, typeset and publish semantically rich documents, please join the discussion.
