=== OER created as part of the toolkit ===
=== OER created as part of the toolkit on 'learning digital story telling' ===
As a part of the toolkit, we worked on creating an OER for the topic 'Learning Digital Story Telling', to demonstrate to you how we could use FOSS applications to create and re-purpose OER. The OER is available on the different pages for text, image and animation, audio and video OER, it is shown below for reference at a single location:

We have copied the text from the LibreOffice text document onto the [https://wordpress.com/page/gurukasi.wordpress.com/27 WordPress page] and inserted the concept map. The web address of one audio and one video has been linked on this page. The aim is to demonstrate how you can bring together text, image, audio and video resources relating to one topic on one page on your WordPress blog. This will allow all your OER on a topic to be strung together providing greater coherence and quality. You can create any number of such pages on different topics that you are creating and re-purposing OER on.

Our purpose in our exercise has been only to demonstrate to you, how to go about creating, re-purposing and publishing OER. The OER created is not intended to be in its final form, for that much more work is required add content to complete the text document and the slide presentation. Work is also required to bring together and refine the text, image, audio and video resources together to make a final OER set on 'learning digital story telling'. Preparing a quality OER is time and effort intensive exercise, you will also need to work quite a bit to revise, refine and finalise your OER. This is likely to be a iterative effort. The applications we have learnt will enable you to go back to the specific OER (file) you are working on, and continue editing the same for further revising.

=== Toolkit created as OER, using MediaWiki ===
This toolkit OER is itself created using MediaWiki, including an extension of MediaWiki, which is [https://wikibooks.org Wikibooks]. This toolkit has been created in a collaborative manner by members of the IT for Change team which authored this toolkit. The toolkit has OER in different formats (text, image, animation, audio and video) and internal and external hype-links as well.
While you can use WordPress to create your own web site where you can host all the OER you create, as explained in previous section, MediaWiki is a candidate platform to host OER, which is sought to be collaboratively produced. Hence if your institution is keen (or you can persuade your institution) to create a platform for all faculty / teachers to collaborate and create, re-purpose and publish OER, then it should install [[wikibooks:MediaWiki_User_Guide|MediaWiki]] on its web-space, on which all the institution's and its faculty requirement for OER, could be attempted to be met.
