DESCRIPTION
Steve StapletonProject Manager - Open NottinghamThis presentation offers two case studies focused on the use and re-use of OER by staff and students at The University of Nottingham. The first provides evidence of re-use by an academic from the School of Geography. The case study includes survey results showing that OER can save time with no compromise on quality. The second case study shows how students at Nottingham’s campus in China have been using open resources to support their studies, to learn how to evaluate academic resources and to support them on their journey to becoming global citizens.

Further Study
• Focus Groups with the 51 students
• University wide student survey on use of web-based resources/OER
Key Points
Practical re-use (anyone can do this)
OER’s can save time without compromising quality and students are using them
Economies of scale
Understanding how students use web based educational resources will help inform OER

Student Use
Students given links to U-Now to access materials
“good results not only for the listening but also for the culture knowledge and the enhancement of students autonomy.”
Student Use
“….interested in using U-Now resources…because it was like a safe “sandbox”, before starting browsing and evaluating academic resources in the Web.”
Student Use
“…interested in the concept of “open” learning sources as learning opportunity for everybody.”
Level 2 designing for level 1:
“they were pleased to collaborate….creation of free learning resources, as taking a responsible role in the community/society”
Student Use
Student Use
“….personal satisfaction in becoming an “author” in French for something official”.
Knowledge without borders
“they are now using some of the (unow.nottingham.ac.uk) resources created by other lecturers and they are understanding that we are one university for true!”
Student OER
Next phase includes student created materials being added as OER to a new U-Now module
