        Abstract
        Integrating eLearning: Key Challenges for Higher Education Governance, By Paul G. West, Director, Knowledge Management & Information Technology, Commonwealth of Learning (COL) // VUSSC is a global initiative. It stretches across 32 of the smallest countries around the globe. Although I come from Africa and relate most strongly with the region, what I highlight is what we advise around the world. // When referring to OERs, be aware that others may use different terms and might be very defensive over their definitions. It might be easiest to just think of all these as “Sharable resources”.
