New QUBES OER sitewide search & browse
We’ve updated our OER search & browse interface to make finding QUBES and partner resources easy! You can find resources via general text search, which will search the resource title, abstract, description, authors, and keywords. The default is for results to be sorted by relevance (based on your text search terms), but you can change this to sort by most recently published, most views, and most downloads. You can also use the faceted QUBES taxonomy to filter your results, with categories like Resource Type, Activity Length, the newly added Software Used, and Inclusive Pedagogy for Life Science Education, to name just a few.
New group OER search & browse
All groups now have an optional Resources page that will show a search & browse similar to the QUBES sitewide search & browse, but prefiltered to show only those resources that are published by your group. By default, this page is active and available to anyone on the internet. You can find this page from within your group by selecting “Resources” from the left-side menu.
Admins of a group can change the settings for this page from within your group’s settings area to the following viewing permissions: Any HUB Visitor, Registered HUB Users, Group Member Only, and Disabled/Off. It is set to “Any HUB Visitor” by default.
Finally, users are able to submit a resource from the resources page within a group. Any resource submitted from a group’s resources page will automatically be associated with the group and will show up in its search & browse.
