The DISK-Project Partners created their own group in the OER-Commons Platform. Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that you may freely use and reuse at no cost, and without needing to ask permission. Unlike copyrighted resources, OER have been authored or created by an individual or organization that chooses to retain few, if any, ownership rights.

OER-Commons describe their service as

The move to open education practice (OEP) is more than a shift in content, it is an immersive experience in collaborative teaching and learning. OEP leverages open education resources (OER) to expand the role of educators, allowing teachers to become curators, curriculum designers, and content creators. In sharing teaching tools and strategies, educators network their strengths and improve the quality of education for their students.

With an open practice, educators are able to adjust their content, pedagogies, and approach based on their learners, without the limitations of “all rights reserved”.OER-Commons

The DISK Group in OER Commons

The aim of this group is to help people – search material for ICT training – to find the created content easily. The content itself is not uploaded in OER-Commons, but described and linked to the download section of the project. OER-Commons provides excellent search options so people looking for training material can find the developed learning modules.
