Some questions for you
What is the most referred to text in first year undergraduate computer science courses in the UK?
before we go any further, I want to ask you guys a few questions ... that might help illustrate some of the things im going to talk about ...
Based on pedagogical approaches, what are the recommended resources required to teach an emerging subject in a new department a University somewhere?

“Linked Data is the Semantic Web done right and the Web done right.”Sir Tim Berners-Lee
linked data movement is publishing data in a agreed form
and through openness others can now come along and build new services and applications on that use this data.
design for appropriation ( architecture of assembly ), structure up front vs structure on the fly
so design data at the right level of granularity for reuse - too complex and no one will understand, too vague and you can’t extract meaning from it.

indeed as my friend Rob pointed out so succinctly ... with Open Descriptions and Deferencible URI’s you get interoperability for free
Openness of Description Having an agreed way of describing certain kinds of data is important.

If you knew what the learning requirements for each course where and the teaching styles that information could be presented to students through applications like Zephyr.
You could also build up a lot of information about the different styles of teaching within an institute, across departments. Or further afield ... you could contrast the different teaching styles for Programming Courses across the UK.
