Benefits of Using Open Educational Resources (OER)

November 18, 2020

12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

Address

Chicago, IL 60612

Open Educational Resources (OER) are materials for teaching and learning that are free and/or have been released under an educational license to be freely used, changed, or shared. OER can be an entire textbook, a single chapter, or even just a knowledge check.

Delivering information through open access resources can be a great opportunity for you and your students. Janet Swatscheno from the UIC Library will lead us as we discuss the benefits of OER and how you can incorporate it into your course design.

This webinar will cover:

  • What is open access and open education resources
  • Locating OERs using the Open Textbook Library, OER Commons, and OASIS
  • Resources available at UIC for adopting and adapting OER
  • How to incorporate OER into your Blackboard course

This webinar will be hosted on the LTS Zoom room. No registration is required. Please add a reminder to your calendar and click on the link below to join at the time and date of the event.
