Open Educational Resources (OER) not only provide free access to teaching and learning materials; they also enable straightforward reuse and adaptation. But what exactly falls under the OER umbrella? Which licences support sharing, using, and modifying materials? Where can you find open resources, and how can you contribute your own materials as OER?
This session introduces the core concepts of OER and illustrates their practical use. Participants will receive hands-on tips for working with OER and an overview of relevant platforms and resources.
This course in English is already part of the upcoming KreativEU training programme to be offered via the KreativEU Centre for Excellence in Digital Education and AI. See this website for more information on KreativEU. More details on the training programme will follow soon.
