The main objective is to identify and describe the criteria supporting the quality of the creation of content by those learners working together in an online environment. Contrasting a literature review and learners’ perception, we propose a quality criteria framework for LGC organized in three clusters: content, format and process. Emphasis on both process and end product highlights the LGC’s twofold intention of being useful as a creative new pedagogical strategy and as a way to share educational resources imbued with the learner’s voice and perception.}, refereed = {yes}, url = {http://www.eurodl.org/index.php?p=special&sp=articles&inum=2&article=459}, attachments = {Perez-Mateo_et_al.pdf}, }
