Alternate Name(s)North Carolina Community Colleges Open Educational Resources
High-quality Open Educational Resources (OER) content and opportunities for collaboration around the adaptation, evaluation, and instructional needs of faculty and learners.
The move to open education practice (OEP) is more than a shift in content, it is an immersive experience in collaborative teaching and learning. OEP leverages open education resources (OER) to expand the role of educators, allowing teachers to become curators, curriculum designers, and content creators. In sharing teaching tools and strategies, educators network their strengths and improve the quality of education for their students.
With an open practice, educators are able to adjust their content, pedagogies, and approach based on their learners, without the limitations of “all rights reserved”.
