Course Management/Open Educational Resources (OER)
This Article Is Licensed Under CCO For Maximum Reuse.
If you have been using the OSF for course management purposes or to develop open educational resources, there are a couple of solutions. We recommend that you contact your institutional librarian (if you have one). It is possible that your institution has a repository for educational materials and research outputs.
OER Commons is the platform most like the OSF in that it is also a repository. OER Commons accepts assignments and worksheets, workshops and courses, texts, lesson plans, readings, and a variety of other materials.
Not all research repositories are appropriate for hosting open educational resources. If you’re thinking about uploading your OER to a repository that primarily hosts research content, please check their guidelines.
To make your OER more discoverable, you can post the links to that material in these locations.
- B.C. Open Collection
- Framework for Open and Reproducible Research Training (FORRT)
- Humanities Commons
- MERLOT
- OER Commons
- Open Textbook Library
You can also search for OER using OASIS.
