A CHEC-CESC Collection is a series of learning objects, complete or in-development, relating to a common thematic (e.g. addictions) or functional (e.g. Virtual Patients) area. CHEC features Collections as a service through which educators and student communities on the CHEC-CESC site can receive recognition for their efforts to create and share their library of educational works.
CHEC-CESC will recognize a Collection based on an analysis of the criteria and process by which a community has gathered, created and compiled the learning objects. While CHEC-CESC does not undertake to evaluate each resource by way of an external peer-review or editorial review, it will review how the collection of resources was established. (e.g. Who is involved in the community? What are the criteria for inclusion? What would be excluded from the collection?)
To initiate a Collection contact Catherine Peirce, CHEC-CESC Project Manager, at: cpeirce@afmc.ca
