KOER uses the MediaWiki 'visual editor' which makes editing as simple as working on a LibreOffice writer document. You can simply type, copy paste, insert images and other files, insert tables etc. like you would do in Writer. There is no need to remember wiki syntax, which was the case with the older method of editing called 'source editing'. Source editing continues to be available for editing KOER.

#It is easier to create audio resources than video resources. Audio resources are very useful for language learning. They are a very useful complement to the usual print resources. While print resources support the 'reading/writing' skills, audio resources can support the 'listening/speaking' skills.
  −
#You can record an audio resource on your smart phone or on your computer.
  −
#You can edit the audio resource using a public software like audacity. Editing can reduce/remove unwanted sounds, add background music etc.
  −
#The final audio clip can be uploaded on http://yourlisten.com and the link provided on KOER

=Steps to use Wiki to create a web-site=
  −
#Identify the audience for the site - who do you want should see the site
  −
#Collate the information you want to share through the site
  −
##Information about the institution - plans, programmes, staff
  −
##Detailed information about programmes - objectives, scope, approach, activities, status, challenges/risks, outcomes
  −
#Try and collate information in different formats
  −
##Text information, images/photos/pictures, videos, animations, existing web links
  −
#Make a 'design' for your site - home page contents, other pages.  This is similar to designing a home - based on needs, how many rooms and for what purpose. Good news is that you can always add pages to your wiki whenever you want, and add/modify/remove content, which is not so easily possible with a house!!
  −
##Home page should be simple and clear. Avoid jazzy styles.
  −
##No information should be too lengthy on home page. Use additional pages for providing details.
  −
##Cluster/categorize information and provide it in pages based on such categories/clusters.
  −
##Any page address (web link) should be provided either on the site home page, or on another page, based on relevance. This can help user to reach any page from the home page. Of course, user can reach a page just through the web address as well.
