Learning outcomes
After the pilot, participants will be able to: 1. define OER, list their categories and compare
types and models of OER 2. characterize the quality and explain the purpose of
use of selected OER 3. analyze issues of OER development and use in
education, and categorize issues and challenges of OER development and use in education
4. design use or reuse of OER and construct next steps in OER development

Outcomes • 3 ECTS + Certificates (for participants and teachers) • www.teacamp.eu/moodle2 (it’s an OER!) • Testimonials (2 videos) • No dropouts • Mainly positive feedback by students on:
– Competence development on OER – Intercultural competence development – English language development – Personal/social competences – Digital skills improvement
• Challenges – Still ‘separate’ from the curriculum – Not all teachers reacted to questions à define roles better! – Time
