ABSTRACT
Due to the need to improve the UVS-Fajardo website to allow the inclusion of a repository of Open Educational Resources, according to specific criteria of careers and specialties of medical sciences taught at the Faculty Manuel Fajardo; It was carried out an investigation in order to: make the adaptations to Drupal software based in a repository of Open Educational Resources; to establish a taxonomy for contents of the Virtual University; and to implement a repository of learning and research resources. As a result a taxonomy was designed by type of resources, with 8 taxa and 250 words that were added to the LOM classification. As a consequence of adaptation of Drupal software and after a process of preparation, the production increased to 644 learning resources and 99 of research. The adaptation of templates, metadata, collection systems and search system was achieved. It was determined taxonomy used in the UVS based on the theory of learning objects and contextualized to the characteristics of the educational establishment. We conclude that the repository implemented has a logic of academic organization that ensures the deposit and search quickly and efficiently; and the preservation, reuse, updating and evaluation of digital materials produced was achieved.REFERENCES
