OER publishing
Deakin Library supports a targeted OER publishing scheme, which aims to deliver demonstrated impact on student success and outcomes.
We support the Deakin community to adapt and create open educational resources (OER) and provide access to and support for infrastructure that enables OER development and sharing. We optimise the impact and visibility of Deakin-developed OER across learning, teaching, and engagement.
Our publishing service includes:
- advising the Deakin academic community on OER publishing considerations and production practices
- acting as production partners on OER adaption and creation projects through our OER Grants Scheme
- managing Library-approved OER publishing platforms
- promoting and showcasing Deakin-developed OER.
