Potential! potentially most of the resource I need in one spot; potentially better/more/more useful resoruces than I currently have access to
Danna Bruns - Instructional Technology Specialist @ Jackson R2 Schools
I'm looking forward to sharing this resource with many of our teachers, especially those who don't have a collaborative team. Those who are in a department of one or teach electives will find this a useful place to find quality resources.
Love the idea of using this with teachers who don't have a team to collaborate with.
I hadn't considered this! We are a small rural school and dmany of our teachers are the one and only one for that content or elective.
Jenna Kammer - Associate Professor at UCM in Library Science - I like the ability of OER to share resources freely amongst teachers! I also like features of OER Commons like the licensing, evaluating and rating--and learning more to love everyday!
