With or without knowledge of what content curation means, teachers of English as a Second Language (IL2) make use of numerous digital curation practices of teaching materials for language teaching. Bearing in mind that such actions can be optimized by online technologies, especially by Open Authoring Systems (OAS), we aim to analyze curatorial practices as applied to the Electronic Learning Organizer (ELO), a free-access cloud authoring tool available for language teachers. With the theoretical support of research on digital curation, we developed a study of an applied nature, with qualitative orientation, using the five principles of digital curation as proposed by Deschaine and Sharma (2015): collection, categorization, critiquing, conceptualization and circulation. The results indicate that ELO incorporates the five principles, although some resources and tools for this practice can be improved.
