  John Curran: "One of the current hot topics in e-learning is curation. But what exactly is curation?"

 

John does a fine job of identifying the important aspects of curation: Interpretation, story-telling and freshness  are 3 of these elements. 

 

He continues on to identify the skills needed for effective curation:

 

Finding

Filtering

Grading (selecting items appropriate for the audience)

Synthesising

Summarising

Signposting ("Signposting to the bits they need or are interested in")

Hi,Nancy. I'm a student of Beijing Normal University and am very much interested in content curation. I was wondering do you know if there are any academic papers about content curation? I failed to find any. If you know, please tell me. Thanks a lot~ Have a nice day!
