Open Educational Resources (OER)

This guide provides information and resources to help support you learn about OER, find and evaluate existing OER, adopt OER, and create OER projects.

OER Created at UCalgary

A number of open educational resources have been created by UCalgary instructors, either through funding from the pilot project in 2017, other grants, or grassroots efforts. Learn more about these locally-created OERs and funding opportunities on the Taylor Institute's Open Educational Resources website.
