Draft introduction to the Western Maryland OER Collaboration group in MOST Commons (F. Stemple)

by Fred Stemple 5 years, 4 months ago

Here is a start. Please suggest or make any needed revisions to communicate with colleagues:

The Western Maryland OER Collaboration group in MOST Commons was created to build on the momentum initiated by the Western Maryland Regional OER Forum hosted at Garrett College in April 2019. This Western Maryland OER Collaboration group provides an organizational site for the networking of faculty and staff to share OER content, courseware and other resources to build and enhance OER in discipline curricula. Although to date only math and physical science disciplines are represented as sub-groups, new disciplines will be added as faculty join the MOST Commons and begin to collaborate.

MOST Commons access to this group is granted to participating institutions and requires new users to access https://most.oercommons.org/ and register by creating an account in the ‘Sign In/Register’ link in the upper left of the homepage. Further communications will follow to guide users within the MOST Commons to find and share OER.

Thanks for creating this space, Fred! I've created some folders to begin uploading some of my existing resources. I'm still learning how to use the space, so I welcome suggestions on how best to organize and share them.
