[FM Discuss] OER Glue - decentralised remixing of content

[mick fuzz]

This is a really impressive idea. It is a tool for finding and remixing
content on the web to create online courses.

There is some really interesting stuff there.

Also check this section (see below). I can't work out if it is genius or
just a complicated way of replacing copy and paste!
Something  to integrate into Book Type maybe?
Authoring Tools

When creating or changing a course, you can use the OER Glue authoring
tools to modify web pages and integrate content and services from multiple
sources.
*Remix Tool*. Use the remix tool to copy part of a web page to a content
management system (CMS) such as WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla where you can
modify it and make sure that it doesn’t change or becomes unavailable. The
first time you open the remix tool you are asked to register a CMS to send
content to.

Specify the web address of a CMS you have access to and provide credentials
for accessing it. Once you have registered a CMS, the remix tool asks you
to select the content to remix:

Then you are asked where to send the content. You can choose one of the
services that you have registered or add a new one.
