Design authentic learning activities that align with content area standards and use digital tools and resources to maximize active, deep learning.
Through OER, teachers are creating, sharing and improving technology-based lesson plans targeted for certain grade levels and subjects. Those who have access to authentic lesson plans and experience can share them and receive feedback from a professional network that refines it to fit the appropriate content area standards. They’re maximizing the total input effort of creating a lesson plan by allowing multiple teachers to collaborate at once, saving the amount of time any one teacher would have to put in to create, test out, and edit a lesson plan.
