Wikipedia:WikiProject Open/OER

Open educational resources are an area of primary interest to WikiProject Open. As of June 2014, the most recent activity in improving these Wikipedia aricles has taken place in the following two places:
 * Communicate OER, a limited duration effort to improve OER-related content on Wikipedia (wrapping up in July 2014)
 * WIKISOO School of Open course, a free online class on Wikipedia editing aimed primarily at those interested in, or knowledgeable about, OER

Resources
We're maintaining a list of good sources of citations for OER-related articles and other pointers.
