Material Detail

The Opening Educational Practices in Scotland project facilitates best practice in Scottish open education. We aim to enhance Scotland’s reputation and capacity for developing publicly available and licenced online materials, supported by high quality pedagogy and learning technology.

The project encompasses a number of activities over a three year period (2014-2017):

1. 1. Analysis of current open educational practices
   2. Events programme across Scotland to raise awareness of OEP
   3. Development of an online hub to encourage and share best practice in open education
   4. Development of a small number of high quality OERs of particular benefit to Scotland
   5. Badging of informal learning
   6. Learning design for widening participation
   7. Research and evaluation building strong evidence base
   8. Evaluation of various economic models of openness

In the long term the project plans to leverage more funding and ensure future sustainability of open educational practices in Scotland.
