Welcome to EUniWell’s OER showcase! Come explore the diversity of Open Educational Resources (OER) through concrete examples developed by partners across the EUniWell alliance.
What are Open Educational Resources? Open Educational Resources (OER) are freely accessible, openly licensed materials created for teaching and learning. They take many forms, from textbooks and videos to full courses and interactive tools, and are typically shared under open licenses such as Creative Commons, which allow reuse, adaptation, and redistribution. As a core component of the broader concept of Open Education, OER support collaboration, innovation, and equitable access to knowledge.
EUniWell’s commitment to Open Education. As the European University for Well-Being, EUniWell is actively working to make education more inclusive, collaborative, and accessible. Open Education, as stated in the EUniWell Declaration on Open Education (2022), provides a framework for sharing knowledge freely and co-creating learning experiences across institutions. By embracing open practices and supporting the use and creation of OER, EUniWell fosters well-being for both educators and learners, empowering communities to learn, teach, and innovate together.
Why an OER showcase? After publishing 23 Good Reasons to adopt Open Education, we wanted to move beyond theory and show open education in action. This showcase features a selection of OER from our partner institutions, and invites educators and learners to explore how open resources can help build a more accessible, collaborative, and inclusive teaching and learning environment.
Learn more about OER and this showcase by checking our FAQ or explore full collection by visiting our partners’ repositories.
