If you have permissions that allow you to search any repository, you can organize learning objects (including harvested resources) into collections. Collections have the following characteristics:
-
Only the user who creates the collection can add items to it.
-
Collections aggregate their key words from the learning objects they contain.
-
Collections always reference the newest version of the learning object they contain.
You can:
-
Include content from any local repository or harvested resource (which you have permission to search) in a single collection.
-
Make your collection public, or limit it to your personal use by hiding the collection in search results.
-
Retrieve a collection into course content.
tip Gather reading list resources into a collection that an instructor can retrieve for course use.
