What is a quality model?
A quality model is a list of criteria with which learning materials must comply if they are to qualify as "fit for purpose". Within an educational institution or a professional community, you can deside to collaborate with creating a quality model like this, to make it easier for educators to share and reuse open educational resources. Having a quality model for open educational resources ensures that educators' confidence in open educational resources will grow. It provides them with a way to evaluate their own materials, and gives them support to assessing materials from others.
