What is OER?

Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching, learning or research materials either Creative Commons licensed or within the public domain, allowing for re-use or adaptation.

OERs include full courses, course materials, modules, textbooks, streaming videos, software, or any other tools, materials, or techniques used to support free access to knowledge.

Where can I find examples of OER?

The St Cloud State University Library Open Access Subject Guide provides searchable collections of open textbooks, open educational resources, open access journals/ebooks, open data, and free licensed media.

The St. Cloud State University OER Blog will give people an opportunity to discuss and explore existing and new OER.

Who can help me find OER?

The University Library can help you locate OERs in your discipline and discuss Creative Commons licensing.  Please contact Rachel Wexelbaum at rswexelbaum@stcloudstate.edu for more information.

Who can help me develop OER?

The University Library / InforMedia Services will work with you to develop OERs for your courses rich on multimedia and interactivity.  Please contact Plamen Miltenoff at pmiltenoff@stcloudstate.edu for more information.

The Minnesota State System Office provides opportunities for OER review, learning circles, workshops, and funding opportunities through their Faculty Development Connect site.  To subscribe, please contact Kimberly Johnson, Minnesota State Faculty Development Coordinator, at kimberly.johnson@minnstate.edu.
