This wiki site aims to support the building of both implicit and explicit knowledge in e-learning, a field which has grown in complexity pedagogically and technologically. A wiki belongs to its users: we are the ones who determine the contents, the structure, the shared work, and the collaborations. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=340192 The CATEA website provides a wide range of information on accessibility news, events, projects, resources, products, and publications The Center for Assistive Technology and Environmental Access (CATEA), formerly the Center for Rehabilitation Technology (CRT), was established at the Georgia Institute of Technology on December 1, 1980. In its first two decades it grew to include expertise in the disciplines of engineering, industrial design, architecture, computer science, rehabilitation counseling, occupational therapy, adult literacy education, orthotics and recreational therapy. By the 1990's, CATEA was an established interdisciplinary research and design center devoted to applications of technology to alleviate problems of human need, providing service, research and education under the auspices of a world class academic institution. With the new millenium, CATEA has taken another leap forward, using the best tools of the digital age to reach an ever-expanding number of consumers. Multiple Web resources, teleconferencing and new media production allow Center staff to provide technical assistance and information dissemination across the globe. Please see our growing number of Projects and Resources for a look at where CATEA is today.

The authors' contributions and comments serve as a series of case studies about how institutions around the world (UK, India, New Zealand, Iran, Africa, Caribbean, US, Australia, etc.) have made use of open source educational software and the ways that these educational resources have been made available within their respective universities and to the public. The postings were originally contributed to Terra Incognita, a blog devoted to exploring new ground in higher education sponsored by Penn State's World Campus. The series has grown out of the increasingly diverse dialogue that is surfacing about open source software, which is truly becoming an international phenomena that is impacting higher education and larger society. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=316183 The Campus Sustainability Assessment project (CSAP) was founded in 1999 to address the limited availability of high-quality resources for supporting colleges and universities in evaluating their social and environmental performance. Through extensive surveys of the literature and the campus sustainability assessment (CSA) corpus, and through correspondence with leaders in the field, the CSAP identified "gaps" among available resources. Using this information, the CSAP research team has created materials to help close these "gaps.״ http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=657605 Ampersand Academic Press is a section within Free-ebooks.org that offers free educational articles books, and textbooks that you can download to digital devices such as eReaders.
