OER Fact Sheet for Adult Education
Posted on 10/15/2014
Spreading the word about open educational resources (OER) and their value in adult education is a primary goal of the OER STEM project. They recently created an OER Fact Sheet for Adult Education to help adult educators and others in the field learn more about OER. This fact sheet defines OER and provides links to find, evaluate, create, and share OER. In addition, they have included an adult education-specific example of what instruction with OER could look like. They welcome you to read, share, and modify this resource for your use—you can find the fact sheet on our LINCS project page
and on OER Commons
.
As a reminder, they have created a public Groups page on OER Commons for adult educators and learners to use as a repository of OER for the adult education classroom. Please contact them at OERSTEM@air.org with questions or visit the project page
for more information about OER in adult education.
