“People engage in activities with resources”
Reusability
“The reusability of learning resources offers many advantages to all stakeholders in the learning process and is now considered an important factor in any learning process” (Oliver 2005).
“Numerous national and international initiatives have been funded to investigate ways in which digital learning resources might be developed, shared and reused by teachers and learners around the world (so as to benefit from economies of scale). Behind these initiatives lies a vision of a future in which reusable resources… could comprise a new currency of exchange within a learning economy” (Littlejohn & Shum 2003).
