Material Detail

The OER movement has empowered researchers and educators to become more innovative in their teaching and learning, through the openness and flexibility. The use and adaptation of OER have been recommended as a very cost-effective investment in quality teaching-learning. In conventional teaching practices, teachers mostly spend time developing learning materials, reviewing lecture notes, anticipating questions and formulating answers, preparing for examinations. This method is no longer appropriate with the learner’s current association with the technology. This research aims on promoting OER-based blended learning for the undergraduate learners. Action research has been conducted in order to identify the learner adaptation to the new culture of OER-based blended learning. This research has evaluated the learner perceptions on OER-based blended learning. The learner performance records were also evaluated as a measure of quality of learning. The study has focused on how the OER materials to be incorporated in the online course development in undergraduate learning. At the same time, research provides feedback on the use of OER- based blended learning methods. The study further elaborates on effective assessment activities which need to be used in OER-based blended learning. Learners were quite positive on these effective assessment activities. Moreover, the study specifies the importance of incorporating OER in undergraduate online learning.
