Presenter: Elizabeth C.C. Simpson, Distance Learning Technology and Accessibility Specialist, North Carolina Community College System
In this session, we will explore how to design a learning experience from scratch using pre-existing OER materials. We will begin with course objectives, identify OER materials, and start the process of adding activities and resources to the Blackboard LMS module. We will address the basics of using the open NCCC microsite. We will explore registering for access to the site, the basics of searching the site, the databases included in the collections, and how to best integrate these resources into your online classroom.
