In our third session I encouraged you to think about how you can encorporate open educational resources into addressing your design problem. I specifically highlighted three environments / tools:
- PressBooks (for creating open textbooks), massive open online courses https://pressbooks.com/self-publishers/
- MOOCs (for example the platform coursera to find video content) and
- Badges (badgr.com to ) to award credentials for informal and open learning https://badgr.com/issuers
