DESCRIPTION
Open Educational Resources and the Teacher Librarian Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching and learning assets that are free to use, edit, and share. Discuss best practices for locating, adapting, and creating OER and explore some exemplar resources identified in OSPI’s 2014 OER review. This session will highlight how teacher-librarians can play a large role in supporting OER.
