#GoOpenVA Training: Create!

(View Complete Item Description)

This video is the result of a collaboration between Blue Ridge PBS and the Virginia Department of Education. It's designed to help educators take the next step from just using the resources of Go Open Virginia to becoming contributors of resources including videos, lesson plans, and utilization plans for ALL teachers. #GoOpenVA is a collaborative initiative that enables educational entities throughout Virginia to create, share, and access openly-licensed educational resources (OER, also known as open education resources). OER are free digital materials that can be used or modified to adjust to student needs; they are openly-licensed unhampered by many traditional copyright limitations. #GoOpenVA encourages all Virginia educators and learners to create, share, and use digital resources with the end goals of providing equitable access to great learning materials throughout the state, and supporting new approaches to learning and teaching for all Virginians.
