OLnet is searching out the

evidence for effective OER,

and building an Evidence Hub

— a living map by, of and for

the OER movement —and those we need

to impact

We need to pool our Collective Intelligence

In the next 40 mins… let’s grow a Claim Garden!

5 display boards have a claim to get you started…

…all the material will seed the Evidence Hub, where we can see it grow, and cross-pollinate…

Mapping OER into

curricula is key to widespread

adoption

OER adoption in developing

contexts depends on local

ownership

OER delivers equal or better

quality resources at a

lower cost The ‘all rights reserved’

copyright regime is the most

serious barrier to OER

??

but 2 boards are blank for you to add your own

Significant OER development will

take place outside formal

institutions
