Overview
A Global OER Map would provide a picture of the worldwide OER movement, serving as a tool to identify OER projects and initiatives, facilitate connection among OER suppliers, teachers, and learners, and act as a resource for communicating with anyone interested in open education. The North-Rhine Westphalian Library Service Center is one of three organizations selected through a Request for Proposal process to design a prototype of the map, which will be presented at the Hewlett Foundation OER Grantees Meeting in April 2014. Feedback from the meeting will inform Phase II of the project.
