Students' Vital Role in OER - Christina Hendricks, Inside Higher Ed
Through creating and spreading open educational resources, students learn more and make an impact on the world, writes Christina Hendricks. When I first started learning about open education and open educational resources about five years ago, I knew OERs were different than other educational resources in that they have an open license, but I thought of them as similar in the sense of being created by instructors in educational institutions. But it’s clear to me now that students also have a valuable role to play in creating and revising OERs, as well as in promoting open education more widely.
