ABSTRACT
In the following, we show different initiatives and access points as well as different opportunities – however, we also identify barriers and possible guidelines to overcome those. One possible support mechanism for the stakeholders in E-learning communities is social software. Within this paper, we will elaborate how it can facilitate easier access, adaptation, and sharing of the open resources.
