This course is designed to introduce educators to the world of Open Educational Resources, including the basics of identifying and using these free curricular resources as well as more advanced skills of customizing and personalizing them. Participants will focus on knowing when to use OER, locating quality OER materials, and remixing to create new materials based on student needs. Participants will design a course map/plan and identify gaps as well as engage with OER materials, interact with classmates to share learning and insights, and reflect on the learning experience. By the end of the course, participants will produce a hands-on, immediately applicable project.
