It shows ways in which teachers can use OER in their classroom, as well as supporting remote learners. This guide contains five units: (1) Developing a framework for hybrid/blended learning in school; (2) Customising OER to meeting students’ need; (3) Using OER for blending learning; (4) Using OER for inclusive learning; (5) Using OER effectively. This guide was developed as part of the Pacific Partnership for Open, Distance and Flexible Learning Project, supported by Foreign Affairs and Trade, New Zealand.
