NERCOMP and CTDLC have formed a partnership to offer online courses. This is the first course offering.

Event Overview
The purpose of this course is to provide information about what qualifies as Open Educational Resources (OER) as well as what benefits OER offers to instructors and students and how to implement OER. We will discuss the differences of OER and open licenses. We will also provide opportunities to practice locating and sharing OER.

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
1. Describe the meaning of OER.
2. Identify OER artifacts and distinguish the different types of Creative Commons licenses.
3. Differentiate the concepts of open licensing, public domain, and all rights reserved copyrights.
4. Locate and attribute OER.
5. Analyze OER implementation strategies and plan for the application of OER.

This is a 4-week online, asynchronous course with an optional additional fifth week offered for the completion of final projects. This is a fully facilitated training that will produce a certificate of completion for participants who complete all required elements, including discussions and the final project. Participants who are fully engaged in this experience can expect to spend up to 5 hours on the coursework each week.

Login details will be sent to participants prior to the start of the course.
