  • By Bill Gates | August 01, 2022
  • Free online textbooks really work
  • the disproportionate impact on low-income students
  • ...17 more annotations...
  • COVID’s impact on teachers
  • veteran teachers leave
  • there has never been a more important time to support teachers
  • this year marks the tenth anniversary of a project I fund personally, separately from the foundation
  • the OER Project
  • free online courses and professional development for educators
  • Although OER courses won’t solve every problem that the pandemic has caused for schools, they’re an important part of making sure teachers get the support they deserve—and students get the high-quality curriculum they need—in such difficult times.
  • there’s nothing new about the concept of OER
  • Every teacher who has ever downloaded a worksheet from Pinterest has used an open educational resource
  • complete courses, including the equivalent of online textbooks for students, coupled with instructional support and professional development for teachers
  • first two courses, Big History and World History, have reached more than 1 million students and 20,000 teachers around the world
  • Given the success we’ve seen, I’m quite optimistic about the broad impact that OER materials can have in education
  • We would love for many others to get involved and keep raising the quality of the digital tools that teachers can use. A great goal for the entire field would be to create courses and professional development for every subject and every grade. The potential here is enormous.
  • For one thing, regardless of what course or grade you’re talking about, the content needs to be developed by experts in the field and in classroom education
  • The OER Project was able to offer on-demand professional development, virtual training sessions, and an online community where teachers can share ideas and resources
  • It can be updated more frequently than print publications can
  • Courses should be created by educators and subject-matter experts, supplemented with professional development, and regularly improved with feedback from the teachers who use them
  •  
    Very good point, we should move away from the standard of printed educational books, after all in the modern world data is constantly updated so books should be revised with time.

  • Open educational resources (OER) have been on the cusp of arriving for more than 15 years, but somehow they never do. So what’s the holdup?
  • Teachers Aren’t Onboard—With Good Reason

  • Unlike Wikipedia, Yelp, and Airbnb, most OER websites have failed to attract a large and active audience
  • search OER Commons, Curriki, Amazon Inspire, OpenEd, or any number of other open-source education sites.
  • So a vital aspect of the sharing economy—the idea that everyone is a content creator—does not seem to be panning out for OER.
  • products that allow users to access OER as well as proprietary content
  • Teachers Pay Teachers, which has been around since 2006, paid out about $100 million across the 3 million resources on the site in 2017
