Open Ed Hands On Activities
Posted by karen on February 15, 2008 in Uncategorized
As a part of my interest in building awareness for OER in the K-12 community, I’ve been doing presentations at various ed tech conferences. I have been very happy with how enthusiastic the audiences have been about this topic. (Most of them have not heard of OER before.) Not only are they excited about “free stuff,” but they really understand how OER could provide a alternative to traditional textbooks and software.
Several groups have asked me to expand my one-hour presentation to a half- or full-day hands-on workshop. In doing this, I’ve set up the hands on activities posted here. These are designed to be short activities that folks can do in a short time to get familiar with wiki editing, licensing issues, mass collaboration, and curriculum sharing.
As with the presentation materials, this is all licensed under CC-BY-SA, so feel free to use and adapt for your own workshops or other uses.
And if you have ideas for other short, easy-to-do activities to get folks excited about OER, I’d love to hear from you.
