To support students to contribute to educational resources, Expression Widgets introduces a number of pre-developed widget modules. This model aims to explore various communication forms using web-based standards. The goal is to reach a condition where participants can create/capture/modify content such as text, canvas-based drawings, SVG elements, MathML or other type of mathematical expression formats, and more.

The annotated resources are organized and kept in simple wiki pages, so there are less rules associated with server systems and focus on possibilities for team-centered conventions. This is a key component of this project as we want to minimize the aspects of governance and let participants simply create open-based spaces and start collaborating. While keeping an user interface that let everyone express while they are browsing, the system aims to spread the idea that annotations about live events can eventually become an open-based education resource. This may support educational organizations to break traditional thinking that all the materials need to be books or something that is old-fashion printed. Since everyone is contributing, the association with personal attribution may loose value as the social interactions can gain attention thus spreading a culture of continued collaboration over the materials.
