My OER course syllabus

Attachment

I used the MASON OER Metafinder (awesome tool by the way) to find a syllabus. I found the following syllabus for the Human Reproductive Biology course from MIT Open Courseware (CC -BY-NC-SA 4.0 license).

https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/health-sciences-and-technology/hst-071-human-reproductive-biology-fall-2005/index.htm 

I then saved the syllabus as an rtfd file and looked for some open access versions of the articles using Google Scholar and Unpaywall, adding links to the full-text where possible using the basic editor TextEdit for Mac. The revised syllabus with links to course readings is attached (zip file).

Very neat exercise, thanks! I can see myself using these skills while helping faculty find course materials.
