This is how I can describe the two that, Wikiversity is devoted to open educational resources and MIT’S OPENCOURSEWARE being initiative to create open educational resources. Its content is released under a “non-commercial” (NC) Creative Commons licence, however, its work has sparked a movement, and this has begun to involve many other universities - under the OPENCOURSEWARE CONSORTIUM. Some of this content is released under NC licences, but many of it is being made more free. Content can be made progressively more free - so something that is released under a non-commercial licence can be relicenced with more freedoms
On the other hand, LeMill is a good example of a repository of resources - findable, remixable etc - but what’s really nice is their separation between learning: content, methods and tools. LeMill is trying to make explicit the different ways in which a subject can be taught and learned, and what tools (software) can be used to do so. The two sites above have well-organised means of searching and tagging.
I hope the with that short experience with Lemill and Wikiversity expose the way they are. Thanks
