Week 6: Integrating OER into teacher education

Introduction

The focus of this week is working with your colleagues to integrate OER into teacher education programmes (pre-service) for preparing teacher/student trainees or in-service work for teachers’ continuous professional development. Where OER might be integrated is considered carefully, as well as the process involved to achieve this.

In this final week there are five activities, including a quiz that you need to undertake in order to formally complete the portfolio of participation and gain your statement of participation. Most important, however, is the plan you develop for taking forward the use of OER in your work as a teacher educator – this is a key output from your study on this MOOC.
