Open Educational Resources (OERs) are any type of educational materials that are in the public domain or introduced with an open license. The nature of these open materials means that anyone can legally and freely copy, use, adapt and re-share them. OERs range from textbooks to curricula, syllabi, lecture notes, assignments, tests, projects, audio, video and animation.
Part two: Open Learning Activities
Open learning activities- Based on competency frameworks (Intended Learning
Outcomes) & technical standards (Open access software)
Open Learning Activities: an example of common goals Bioethics: Identify ethical problems, positions, and arguments within
biomedicine. Perform an analysis of an ethical problem within
biomedicine. Coherently argue for and against courses of action on how
to deal with an ethical problem within biomedicine
Open Learning Activities- promoting virtual mobility Competency frameworks that work across borders Pedagogical content material that is developed with
“excellence in mind” Assessment activities that allow students to test their own
knowledge and allow faculty to track that knowledge Examination conducted in respective school Data that allows us to follow students learning and figure
out what works!
