Open Educational Resources (OERs) have received much attention in the past few years both nationally and internationally—as the innovation du jour for teaching and learning. The presenters will offer an overview of the OER landscape and participants will learn how to find and implement OERs in eLearning courses. The presenters will also discuss opportunities to participate in a Next Gen grant, "Bridge to Success (B2S)" which they received from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Presented by Brandon Muramatsu, Patrick McAndrew, Jean Runyon, Shelley Hintz, and Kathy Warner to the Instructional Technology Council Webinar on September 20, 2011.

- 13. OER: l’innovation du jour? • What are Open Educational Resources? • We’re going to talk about OER writ large. • We’re not going to bore you with definitions! (Well, we’ll try!) • We’re not going to get all religious about OERs!
- 14. OER: l’innovation du jour? • We’d like you to think about OER as an entrée to a conversation • A conversation about teaching, crafting courses, & sharing course materials • A conversation about collaborating with peers and even students • And, you’re probably already using Open Educational Resources! • We’ll find out in a bit…
- 15. Do you (or your faculty)… • Talk about courses with peers? • Borrow course materials, teaching techniques, sources? • What about, sharing materials?
- 16. OER is all of these things! • At it’s heart, OER is about doing these sorts of things! • And, it’s about encouraging sharing of materials and practices… • And, it’s clearly communicating what others are allowed to do with the materials…
- 17. When borrowing resources… • Do you look at the license or terms of use? • Huh? What are those? • Do you provide attribution for those resources? • Attribution is a key aspect of research, it should be for teaching as well! • Why or why not? • <discussion>
- 18. What are you allowed to do? What might you allow others? • Instead of “All Rights Reserved” • Can someone else use the materials? • Can someone build upon or modify the materials? • Can they use those materials commercially? • Do they have to share any materials they develop the same way the materials were originally shared? • Do these sound familiar?
- 19. Creative Commons Licenses creativecommons.org • A “standard” way providing permissions to your work • The easiest way of communicating your resource is “open”
- 20. Have you used Flickr? • Did you know that Flickr allows photo sharers to indicate a license? • And that you can search for Creative Commons licensed photos?
- 21. Searching for Openly Licensed Photos at Flickr
- 24. Do you use course materials developed by others? • How do you find out about them? • Talking to peers in your department? • Through ITC? Other professional societies? • Looking through digital repositories? • Google searches? • What what make them easier to use? • How do you incorporate them into your classes? Does “Open” make it easier? • <discussion>

Open Learning: Bridge to Success Bridge to Success is made possible through a Next Generation Learning Challenge grant awarded to Anne Arundel Community College, the Open University (UK), University of Maryland University College (UMUC) and Massachusetts Institution of Technology (MIT). NGLC is led by EDUCAUSE in partnership with The League for Innovation in the Community College, the International Association of K-12 Online Learning and the Council of Chief State School Officers. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation helped design the Next Generation Learning Challenges and fund the initiative.

Definition (OER) 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 or re-purposing by others. Open educational resources include full courses, course materials, modules, textbooks, streaming videos, tests, software, and any other tools, materials, or techniques used to support access to knowledge.

- The Open University was established just over 40 years ago – though someone recently said that was a great name for a start up.Open to people, places, methods and idea.Open entry.Now openness means so much more.
- Operation as a UniversityLarge by European standards in terms of people.Best satisfaction results of any University since they established National Student Survey
- I work in IET – research and support OU. Courses, labs
- Stone soup. OER like it but in two ways!
- Did you know that Flickr allows photo sharers to indicate a license?And that you can search for Creative Commons licensed

- Openness means moreOpenLean – launched 2006. Great support from Hewlett Foundation. Different for Open U to others – we did make money from materials. So a big experiment. My own role to look after Research and Evaluation.
- Across organization, learners and educators. Highlight some of the organizational findings. Going open was not designed to meet all these aims but did: help.Highlight technologies, collaboration.
- Openness is part of our operation now. Justified in own rights. Big presence on iTunesU. Helping rest of the UK get involved.
- Inspired by the goals set forth by President Obama in the American Graduation Initiative and compelled by the existing and future needs of our country for skilled workers in today’s knowledge-based society and economy, Anne Arundel Community College responded with Student Success 2020.
- Learning to Learn is a short course for individuals who are thinking about starting or returning to college. The course is designed to build confidence and to provide the tools and skills necessary to be successful in an academic setting and in the workplace. The course encourages a consideration of possible choices and the value of making plans for the future. In addition, it will increase awareness of an adult’s current qualities, knowledge and skills. Adults will be introduced to the cycle of learning and will develop a personal action plan. The course activities will help adults develop the essential college and life skills of communication, problem solving and self-management. Succeed with Math provides a review of key concepts and to apply these concepts to real world applications. Math and You is designed to build math confidence, to develop problem-solving strategies and skills, and to explore the many ways math impacts an adult’s daily life. Getting down to the Basics provides content and activities to address these key areas: decimals, rounding, estimating, units and measurements, signed numbers, basic operations (with signed numbers), reading and writing mathematics, and using knowledge in real world scenarios. Relationships among Numbersprovides content and activities to address these key areas: how numbers are used in daily life, fractions, percentages, ratios, connections between fractions, percentages, and ratios.
