To create innovative Open Educational Resources around WW1 relevant across disciplines for embedding in teaching and learning using a range of content pertaining to WW1 (both UK and international). This single project will support the following activities:

a. The creation of a suite of learning and teaching resources that provide an international, cross-disciplinary reappraisal of WW1 using digital content which will subsequently be brought together and presented as OERs

b. The embedding of the OERs in teaching and learning practice

c. The capturing and sharing of "lessons learned" in the developing and embedding the OERs
