Open pedagogical practice
At CTL we place open educational practice at the heart of our teaching philosophy. Open educational practice (OEP) goes beyond simply using open educational resources (OER); it involves fostering a culture of openness, collaboration, and innovation in teaching and learning. We actively promote open scholarship and OEP among educators though the activities presented next.
Show and TEL series
We actively promote OEP among educators through the Show and TEL series, where teachers share their digital educational practice with other colleagues.
You can watch all Show and TEL presentations here.
