Hi Everyone, The DEHub <http://wikieducator.org/DEHub>in Australia are leading an important project on OERs in Higher Education in Australia. The research team are requesting help from Australian educators working in the higher education sector to assist with providing information on OER.
This could lead to important policy developments for OER in Australia -- so a friendly invitation to all Australian WikiEducators, please help by completing the survey. See invitation below. Cheers Wayne ==================================== Dear WikiEducator members, We would like to invite you to participate in our research project titled “*Adoption, use and management of Open Educational Resources (OERs) to enhance teaching and learning in Australia*”, funded by the Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) through our online survey. The purpose of this survey is to provide an environmental scan of the use and understanding of Open Educational Resources within Australian higher education institutions. Your participation is likely to take only 20 minutes of your time. We hope you will consider being involved. To achieve the aims of our project, we are seeking data from a range of stakeholders. As a member of this professional network, currently working within the AUSTRALIAN HIGHER EDUCATION SECTOR, your views and perceptions on the issues we are investigating would be invaluable and warmly welcomed. Please click here to access our survey: http://uneprofessions.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_8iFka6ZlrVaip5q You can further assist us in gathering data surrounding OERs by forwarding this survey onto other colleagues. Further details on the project can be obtained from http://wikiresearcher.org/OER_in_Australia Please do not hesitate to contact me, the project’s chief investigator, at cbos...@une.edu.au, if you have any further questions related to this project. Your contribution to this research would be greatly appreciated!
