MERLOT (Multimedia Educational Resource for Learning and Online
Teaching)
The MERLOT (Multimedia Educational Resource for Learning and Online
Teaching) Repository provides access to a curated Open Access online
collection of Open Educational Resources (OER) that includes learning
and support materials and learning objects. It is a database of
metadata that describe: 1) all the learning materials, including 1,500
learning exercises (the total number of materials is more than
80,000); and 2) the profiles of registered MERLOT Members (more than
155,000). The content creation tools (ePortfolio, learning materials),
as well as personal spaces (Bookmark Collections, Voices ‐ a community
networking site) are integrated on the same platform. Together, these
resources create an open, content-rich, flexible and collaborative
environment for learners, educators, and researchers and offer a
highly cost-effective approach to supporting instruction and learning
processes.
