OER at DUT

20 August 2013 by Graham Stewart 4 Comments

OER-LogoDUT e-learning practitioners can make a significant contribution to student centred education through the creation and distribution of Open Educational Resources (OER). The university has already pinned its colours to the wall by signing to the Berlin Declaration on Open Access in May 2013. The DUT institutional repository is a leading South African example of sharing research information with the society it serves. By sharing our teaching and learning content and assessment materials we can join a wider community committed to making educational resources freely available to learners and educators.
Take a look at OER Africa.

    I would be interested in more information on how to develop learning materials in formats that can be shared, e.g. SCORM. – Graham

      It makes financial and philosophical sense for the university to consider adhering to SCORM standards.

    From SCORM which is going to be replaced by Tin-Cap there is a real drive to promote sharing in all its forms.

    Clear thinking will make the most of the opportunities available.
