• Integrity model: OER is very similar to the original material

• Essence model: Material is transformed by cutting back to essential features and new activities added for interactivity.

• Remix model: Material is used as a starting point but the unit is redesigned for ideal web based delivery.

Open, Transferable and Technology-enabled Educational Resources: the OTTER project

• Funded by JISC and the HE Academy

• May 2009 to April 2010 as pilot institutional OER project

• Enabled evaluation of systems and processes to support the release of high-quality OERs at Leicester

• Made use of JorumOpen and the Plone CMS.

OTTER achievements

• 360+ credits’ worth of OERs

• Promoted Leicester and the UK HE sector globally

• Research evidence on satisfaction and attitudes to OERs

• Put-up take-down guidelines for OERs

• Leicester OER toolkit

• The CORRE framework for turning teaching materials into OERs

• Much increased awareness of OERs at Leicester and elsewhere

Derby - background• University owns the materials.

• Centralised team – CORRE very suitable.

• A range of subject areas from quarrying to education...

• No central OER team at University of Bath

• Development of a framework for creating OER ‘from scratch’

Bath – IP PolicyIPR at Bath is complex:

- University owns IP of all work undertaken by staff;

- Academics own materials produced for campus-based teaching. BUT …

- … the University owns materials produced for distance education.
