This blog will support the C-SAP (Higher Education Academy Subject Centre for Sociology, Anthropology and Politics) project: Cascading Social Science Open Educational Resources.
The project will run from September 2010 until September 2011 as part of the wider Open Educational Resources Programme Phase II. It seeks to cascade support for embedding Open Educational Resources within the social sciences curriculum, focusing on the relationship between the use of OERs and student engagement. Within the project framework, C-SAP seeks to embrace an open curriculum where learners have the flexibility to select a range of individual units/courses to suit their personal needs for the development of expertise. Thus, through engagement with partners from both HEIs and HE in FE institutions, we will explore the ways in which OERs can be integrated sustainably into curriculum design processes in a manner which effectively engages the students.
We will use the blog to post updates on the project and communicate with the OER community, share our thoughts, resources and latest discoveries in the field of open education/learning technology. We see this space as a collaborative effort and welcome any feedback - watch this space for more contributions coming shortly!
