LO & OER

Of course two or three examples of each type would help clarify the problem. I would suggest that NO ONE accepts your limited view of learning objects and that you would have great difficulty in finding any that fit your idealized straw dog list of characteristics. I would say the same for your OER definition. For example are you really saying that LOs created for classroom or military uses CANNOT be used by anyone for any other use? What pockets are they being confined to? I would suggest that depending on which definition that is used that there are more open access LOs available than proprietary ones. Again, a few examples would really help clarify.
All the best - an interesting approach.
