Hello everyone,
Thank you for a great meeting earlier today. To recap:
- We reviewed the terminology surrounding OER (free, “open,”)
- Tossed out some possible pros (access, low-cost, outdated textbooks) and cons (technology gaps, investment of labor/time, etc).
- Took a look at Creative Commons licenses, their context, and the basics of how to decipher them.
- Explored some OER course sites, and shared our feedback.
Towards this last point, we also created on the “giant Post-Its” a helpful list of Best Practices, based on our own observation. (See image below).
We look forward to seeing everyone again in 2 weeks!
