Welcome!

Open education is an attitude, a practice, and a method of teaching that inspires inquiry, equal access to course materials, and sharing lessons and materials with the wider community. At the center of open education is the belief that education is strengthened when shared openly. Open education relies on open educational resources (OER) and Open Licensing.

This workshop is self-paced, however, you will have the opportunity to introduce yourself and share recourses with colleagues who are also enrolled. Over time, we will amass a collection of OER evaluations for all to share!

Upon completion of this workshop you will be able to:

Identify and describe open license types
Locate OER
Evaluate OER

You will receive a certificate of completion at the close of this workshop. Feel free to return to this site often to check the discussion board for or to add additional OER evaluations in your subject area.

This workshop is organized into Modules. You can access the modules by clicking on the Module menu area, to the left . If you would like a badge/certificate for this workshop, you will need to participate in the OER Share discussion.
