Humber’s Digital Learning Strategy acknowledges that our fundamental commitment to excellence will be fully reflected in the ongoing development of Digital Learning, including the creation and curation of Open Educational Resources (OER). Humber is currently undertaking an institutional inventory of OER use in courses across all programs and schools. This inventory will be a useful tool for helping to identify opportunities for increased adoption of OER in support of learning.

In 2018, Humber official joined the Open Educational Resource University (OERu). Coordinated by the OER Foundation, an independent, not-for-profit organization, the OERu network of institutions offers free online courses for students worldwide and provides affordable ways for learners to gain academic credit towards qualifications from recognized institutions.

Joining OERu formalizes Humber’s continued re-conceptualization of student access and program delivery frameworks and supports our aim to increase access to mobile and ubiquitous learning and reshape our physical and virtual campuses in order to facilitate 21st-century education. Partnering with OERu aligns with Humber’s digital learning strategic goal to innovate through a networked community within and beyond the College to respond to emerging trends and priorities in our local, national and global communities.  

Want to learn more? Contact Humber’s Director of Digital Curriculum, Theresa Steger (theresa.steger@humber.ca).
