What I believe and why I got involved in OER
Differentiating instruction is essential to improving education.
Textbooks are not a good tool for this. Technology coupled with high quality content is. Teachers and students need high quality
resources that they can use legally to build interactive lessons, podcasts, multimedia presentations, etc.
Sharing is good.
What is OER?
Digital, free, and OPEN for anyone to use, adapt, and redistribute
Tools, content, and implementation resources
For teachers, students, and lifelong learners
How is OER relevant to education?
Suitable for “remixing” for differentiation Examples
