Medical Education Forum – Open Educational Resources
On Thursday May 19th we will be guests at the Medical Education Forum held regularly over at Little France.
This session will include an introduction to Open Education Resources from OER Advisor, Stephanie (Charlie) Farley. Followed by an update from Simon Riley about his work on OpenMed (http://openmed.co.uk/), a learning framework for students and staff to curate medicine and health care OERs and other open access resources.
Open Education Resources (OERs) are online resources that are available for others to use to support learning. The University of Edinburgh has recently adopted an OER policy, which outlines the institutional position on OERs and provides guidelines for practice in learning and teaching.
The room has been booked until 3pm so that anyone wishing to can stay on after the initial session for an informal workshop.
