Forum Discussion: Reflecting on Your OER Journey
In this unit, you explored several important ideas:
- What Open Educational Resources (OER) are,
- How to find OER,
- How Creative Commons licences work, and
- How to adapt OER for your own teaching.
For this discussion, please reflect on your learning and share your experience with the group. In your post, respond to the questions below:
- What is the most important thing you learned about OER, and why do you think it matters for teachers in Tanzania?
- Which OER search strategy or platform did you find most useful, and what made it effective for you?
- How confident do you now feel about using Creative Commons licences to guide what you can do with a resource?
- Describe your experience adapting an OER. What did you change, and how did the adaptation make the resource more suitable for your learners or context?
- How do you see yourself using OER in your future teaching? Give at least one practical example.
After posting, please read at least one colleague’s contribution and reply with a helpful comment or suggestion.
