Multicampus
• “Any higher education setting that involves
delivering study curricula to campuses at different
locations under one institutional umbrella, whether
this is one individual institution or a network of
institutions, and regardless whether the delivery
method is physical, entirely virtual or blended. “

OER definition
• “Open educational resources are learning content or
tools that are offered free of charge under a
copyright license granting permissions for users to
engage in the “4R” activities: reuse, revise, remix,
and redistribute. In essence, open educational
resources are learning objects that use an open
source license.”
Erik Duval & David Wiley
Reframing Resources
• Open Educational Resources go beyond Learning materials and involve the stakeholder communities and key actors involved in the relevant knowledge domains
• The ultimate Open Educational Resource is part of the social network that warrants the supply chain, validates the knowledge claims, and makes it sustainable and fosters its growth
