Open Educational Resources
Open Educational Resources are any resources available at little or not cost that can be used for teaching, learning, or research. They are online textbooks, course readings, lesson plans, tools, games, and many other educational documents. Tuesday's class was the first time I have ever heard of OER's.The best part about these resources is that they are free! Nothing these days are free especially when it comes to education. These links I have shared with you go in depth and explain the who, what, and whys of OER's. The best information I found about Open Educational Resources was a website that says where it all started and lists who was all involved. It was interesting to find out that it started at a college institution and grew so large. This site breaks down the different resources available making them easy to find. I Believe this might be one of the best technology advances yet, it helps me as a student, a future teacher, and researcher.
