Pilaar 3: OER

Our vision is to promote the creation, sharing, and reuse of open educational resources by educators and students. We aim to provide educators with the tools and opportunities to update traditional teaching methodologies, and to make use of novel teaching methodologies that turn students into co-creators of knowledge. In doing so, we can increase the quality of education, make it more flexible and accessible, and provide additional options for academic staff and students to show their excellence.

Deliverables:

• The creation of (central) policy and incentive structures to stimulate the creation and use of Open Educational Resources
• Aiding teacher professionalization through the creation of (thematic) workshops, self-paced learning opportunities, and Open Education integration tools
• Providing infrastructure support for novel forms of Open Educational Resources such as e-learning
• Connecting educators and students to societal actors to increase learning impact in accordance with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
