My reflection of week two

OpenEdMOOC

Hi, I have learned a lot from the gurus of OER Allow me to refer them by their first names, David and George. Fortunately, I have been taking a lot of interest with OER, since I am eLearning evangelist, I have always believed in the 3r. reuse, remix, the third has fallen off. It was interesting following the genesis of the OER as expounded by David when he recalled how a “software” calculator would be shared easily. Later the works of George on the creative commons (CC). The perspective of OER is Nordic, some Europeans countries like German who offer free education. Interesting suggestion on how MIT offered free. The presentation was unique- no power points- I think the story- the narration is a powerful way of teaching.

We here in the Africa, need a lot of OER- I know of some initiatives by UNISA- South Africa, I have worked with Merlot- and we have a number health-related activities. At the moment I am involved in promoting a site for the k4 health project- we hope health workers can use for CPD- continuous professional training or education.  Succinctly put OER, is the solution to most problems in education particularly in the Subsaharan Africa - it will ensure quality, uniformity and it affordable- reusing what exists.
