Presented at the Excellence in Teaching 2017 conference on February 10, 2017. Abstract: Have you ever considered using an open textbook in your class? How about open courses, quizzes, lab manuals, or other course materials? Open Educational Resources (OERs) are free and free to reuse resources or course materials that you can repurpose in your classes, including both written and multimedia content. There are OERs available for every subject matter and academic level. Tarleton librarians, Margie Maxfield Huth (Systems Librarian) and Amy Castillo (Periodicals & Electronic Resources Librarian) will discuss what OERs are, and how they can be used in the classroom. They will also show resources for identifying OERs that might be appropriate for use in your classes.

- 2. Definition of Open Educational Resources (OER) "Open Educational Resources (OER) are any type of educational materials that are in the public domain or introduced with an open license. The nature of these open materials means that anyone can legally and freely copy, use, adapt and re-share them. OERs range from textbooks to curricula, syllabi, lecture notes, assignments, tests, projects, audio, video and animation.” - UNESCO (http://www.unesco.org/new/en/communication-and-information/access-to-knowledge/open-educational-resources/what-are-open- educational-resources-oers/)
- 3. Essentially OERs are: Teaching & Learning Materials released under an open license and freely available online for anyone to use Can be smaller, standalone resources that can be mixed & combined such as tutorials or lesson plans Can also be larger such as course modules, textbooks, & software The idea is to create, share, & use materials so that future users benefit
- 4. Why OER? For Educators & Authors: OER provides flexibility - “...can curate, tailor, and share OERs to perfectly suit their curriculum, and share their innovations freely.”(1) Can contribute to high, quality OERs for use around the world For Students: OER provides an alternative to rising costs of education Eliminates cost barrier associated with purchasing a traditional textbook (1) SPARC OER Fact Sheet http://sparcopen.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/SPARC-Open-Education-Fact-Sheet.pdf
