Adopting Open Educational Resources and Open Educational Practices

Open University of Sri Lanka's first Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) now open for registration

This is an initiative of The Open University of Sri Lanka (OUSL), supported by the Commonwealth Educational Media Centre for Asia (CEMCA). The goal of this initiative is to raise awareness on the potentials of Open Educational Resources (OER) and Open Educational Practices (OEP) among practitioners from any field of study. This whole initiative comprises four CPD MOOCs to support participants solve authentic and real-world problems and issues that they are likely to be facing in their workplaces in relation to adopting OER and OEP. A defining characteristic of these MOOCs is their unique design, which is, scenario-based learning. Learning scenarios have been carefully crafted to reflect the kind of problems, issues and challenges that practitioners are likely to be confronting in their environments. We expect that your journey through these CPD MOOCs will be a productive one, and one that is effective, efficient and engaging! Registration is now open, until 19 October, 2018, at http://www.ou.ac.lk/apps/mooc/
