“…openness is the sole
means by which
education is effected.
If a teacher is not sharing
what he or she knows,
there is no education
happening.
Education is sharing.
Education is about being
open.”
Openness as Catalyst for an Educational Reformation, David Wiley, EDUCAUSE Review, vol. 45, no. 4 (July/August 2010): 14–20

Pillar 1: Open Educational Resources
Photo Day #93 by Martin Weller CC-BY-SA
“Open Educational Resources (OERs)
are any type of educational materials
that are in the public domain or
introduced with an open license. The
nature of these open materials means
that anyone can legally and freely
copy, use, adapt and re-share them.”
UNESCO

8.
Pillar 2: Open Pedagogy
Open Pedagogy is an access-oriented
commitment to learner-driven
education and as a process of
designing architectures and using
tools for learning that enable
students to shape the public
knowledge commons of which they
are a part. Jhangiani & DeRosa (2017)

“Open education is not limited to just open
educational resources. It also draws upon open
technologies that facilitate collaborative, flexible
learning and the open sharing of teaching
practices that empower educators to benefit
from the best ideas of their colleagues.”
Cape Town Open Education Declaration, 2007
Pillar 3: Open technology

Adding CC license: 3 Considerations
1. Only license to content that can be copyright, and that
you have created.
2. CC licenses cannot be revoked
3. Decide what you want people to do with your content.
Which Creative Commons License is right for me? (PDF)
https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/Considerations_for_licensors_and_licensees#Make_sure_the_material_is_appropriate_for_CC_licensing.

28.
Once you have decided on a license
1. Add a Creative Commons license mark to your work.
Use the CC license picker (good for html), MS Office
plugin, or manually add a CC mark.
2. Consider adding an attribution statement so people
know to attribute you.
3. Share your resource on your blog.
4. Consider sharing your resource in a repo that
supports CC licenses (ie Flickr)

Finding OER
Open Textbooks

pieces if you want)
• open.bccampus.ca The BC Campus collection
• OpenStax College major project out of Rice University
General Searches
• Use the Creative Commons search engine

the CC licenses?) Always follow back to original source to confirm license on the original site.
Public General repositories
• Wikimedia Commons: content created by community to support Wikipedia articles
• Flickr: user generated photos & The Commons, open photos from cultural institutions
• Slideshare: Presentations and slides
Edu specific
• OER Commons
• MERLOT (be sure to drill down into communities for specific academic resources, like the
Teacher Education portal)
