MERLOT: Web-based Learning Objects

Adding Web-based Learning Objects to your online courses

Before deciding that you need to create a learning object from scratch, review the following guide on MERLOT (Educational Resource for Learning and Online Teaching).

“MERLOT is a free and open resource designed primarily for faculty and students of higher education. Links to online learning materials are collected here along with annotations such as peer reviews and assignments.”

The following guide, created by CITL staff, highlights some of the features of the MERLOT website. This guide does not endorse any of the artifacts/learning objects that are included on the MERLOT website.

Please be aware that the CITL does not assume responsibility for the functionality or content of any site links provided, whether they are internal (GW) or external.
