Title: Finding annd Enhancing OER for your College
Open Educational Resources not only save students money, but they also provide the opportunity to customize the material for the needs of the specific course and the specific instructor. This presentation will give examples on how to bring the OER culture into a college. It will also guide the audience on how to find the particular OER learning materials for a course and then enhance these materials to best address the learning needs of the students.
