Designing with Open Educational Resources (OER)
Sobre este curso
Omitir Sobre este cursoToday’s classrooms are dynamic, engaging and active learning spaces and our resources should be as well. Sadly, many of the available learning resources are too expensive or not dynamic or too broad to meet our instructional needs. An essential skill for educators is to be able to infuse Open Educational Resources to meet the specific needs of their learners.
This course is an introduction to learning the tools and practices for Designing Open Educational Resources (OER). The course begins with an educational system review of Open Education and how the rise in popularity of Creative Commons attribution has promoted the open sharing of instructional materials in both K-12 and higher education learning environments. Then, learners review how to identify instructional learning gaps, explore OER repositories and evaluate existing OER to identify educational and course materials to meet their needs. The course culminates with hands-on activities for remixing OER as well as designing OER in various digital media to publish educational materials to meet specific instructional needs.
No previous digital design or experience is required. All course projects and activities utilize free or shareware based online resources and applications.

Preguntas frecuentes
Omitir Preguntas frecuentes1.What are Open Educational Resources (OER)?
Open educational resources (OER) are teaching, learning, and research resources that reside in the public domain or have been released under an intellectual property license that permits their free use and re-purposing by others. OER include full courses, course materials, modules, textbooks, streaming videos, tests, software, and any other tools, materials, or techniques used to support access to knowledge.
2.How does OER help educators and learners?
Open educational resources give educators the ability to adapt instructional resources to the individual needs of their learners, to ensure that resources are up-to-date, and to ensure that cost is not a barrier to accessing high-quality standards-aligned resources.
3. Will I be finding OER or developing OER?
Both. We begin by identifying an instructional need for the OER, looking at current repositories with OER, selecting and evaluating an OER. The second part of the course is around modifying and, or developing OER to meet your specific instructional need.
4. What types of OER will I learn to develop?
During the Designing OER MOOC, we will create multiple modes of OER, from text based for both digital and print, to images, videos and animations.
5. Will I need to purchase any software or subscriptions for this course?
No, all course projects and activities utilize free or shareware based online resources and applications
