´óÏó´«Ã½

External links to third party websites offer users of ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning sites the chance to add breadth and depth to their online learning experience. Currently, ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning only links out to a small selection of free websites. However, we would now like to expand the number of links to both free and subscription content.

Initially we will be running a six-month beta testing phase, linking to third party free and subscription websites from ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning curriculum content (including Bitesize) within the new Knowledge and Learning Product.

Process

All organisations who wish to be considered for links from ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning curriculum content (including Bitesize) will need to complete a Linking-Out Application Form and agree to the Linking-Out Terms and Conditions. All application forms will be assessed by the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning Policy and Public Affairs team and added to a database of links for use by the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning editorial teams.

Timings

Application forms will be accepted from May 2013. We intend for the first links from ´óÏó´«Ã½ Learning curriculum content (including Bitesize) to go live from autumn 2013. There will be interim reviews of the Linking-Out process during the beta testing phase with opportunities for external organisations to provide feedback.
