Educators: Learn to Wiki

May 9, 2010 by Janet Salmons

Open Education Resources (OER) is becoming much more pervasive in tertiary education. Developing content which can be shared within one institution, or across continents represents a powerful paradigm shift in the distribution methods of learning content and courseware from traditional publishing models to those which are open and collaborative in nature. Major initiatives from leading institutions to provide open courseware further support the growth of this segment of online learning.

IT4All extends an open invitation to all educators around the world to join them on WikiEducator to receive a free basic Wiki editing skills online training in exchange for one Open Education Resource (free lesson plan, student guide, teacher handout or other lesson) developed on the Wiki.

Join the upcoming L4C38 free 10-day online workshop scheduled to begin on May 26, 2010.
