Abstract
This paper introduces the first implementation of relevance and reputation indicators in Edu-AREA. This Web 2.0 application promotes users creating, viewing, adopting, adapting, and curating elements in an open way, following the principles of the open educational resources movement. A main issue is the management and control of quality. Users can provide elements freely, so some mechanism that can estimate or rank their quality is needed. A solution based on usage by other users inspired in the hypertext-induced topic search algorithm is adopted. Taking into account the usages of the elements, a relevance measure for each element and a reputation measure for each user are calculated.
