Locating Open Educational Resources

Locating relevant resources which include Open Educational Resources (OER)  very early in the design of a BL course is encouraged. Most OER have been through rigorous quality enhancement cycles which makes them to be of good quality. They help educators not to invent already existing wheels. Open Textbooks are a good starting point in particular for university educators and their students. See examples of Open Textbook Network and Multimedia MERLOT OER sites by also clicking on the two images below:

    Thank you very much Thula, for the information on OER and OER repositories, and especially on how to attribute. OER are freely accessible and available to anyone and can be used to teach and learn and can also be shared. Sharing is need to be reinforced.

    Thanks Thula for sharing. I agree Alexia, we need to build a culture of sharing.
