What is Open Education?
Education is a human right, but for many people there are barriers to access it. Learn how Open Education lowers or eliminates barriers for students.
What are Open Educational Resources (OERs)?
Just because a resource is available online does not make it an open educational resource. Learn how OERs work as resources that we can legally use, modify, and share.
What is Open Pedagogy?
Open pedagogy is about engaging students as creators of information rather than passively receiving information. Learn how the principles of open can be applied to your teaching practices.
Understanding Open Licensing
Open licensing allows people to legally use, modify, or share copyrighted content, giving users permission in advance to use their work and the ability to add limitations to how their work can be used.
Finding and Using OERs
Replacing a paid textbook with an open resource is a small and easy way to make a big difference for students. Learn how to find and adopt an OER for your classroom.
