A course to explore using free, open educational resources in K-12 classrooms

This course will explore how a variety of free, open educational resources (OERs) can be used in K-12 classrooms. In this course, you will research, remix, and use OERs suitable to your students' needs and also publish some of your own educational resources under an open license. Plan to come learn and teach as a part of this course community; open to U.S. K-12 educators.

    Freedom! not free of cost (while that's nice, too).

    Love the term "openwashing."

    "If you like our free offerings, maybe you'll like what we sell for just a few dollars a student. You know, the stuff which has been recognized by so many school boards across the nation." Retailing has used the classic bait and switch trick for a long time.

    Come in, join me said the spider to the fly.

    Thanks for the link, Karen.
