摘要:The University of the West Indies Open Campus and Athabasca University conducted a pilot workshop to see if open educational resources (OER)could be used to construct curricula. UWIOC was interested in increasing distance educationofferings and Athabasca University was interested in expanding programming to offer an online graduate program in Instructional Design. A workshop brought a team together to: come to a consensus on the format of module specifications,select appropriate resources, and to report on the feasibility of the approach. The team produced course outlines and specifications for modules using OER. The following were noted: Use of OERsped the aggregation of content; OERare not available for every topic; OERdiffer from the desired scope and academic level; they vary in media and content quality; and OERthat lack clarity of authorship and copyright are difficult to include in courses.
