Project description: In collaboration with CLT, we at the library are working on the project on adoption of Open Educational Resources (OERs) as a resource base for faculty at FCC. In this regard we have collaborated for expert support with Dalal Al-Hakim Rahmeh from American University of Beirut (AUB). The project aims to establish a repository of OERs at the library that cater to the discrete needs of the faculties taught at FCCU and develop the expertise of the library staff to develop OER course packs. The goal is to support faculty in using, adapting and creating/developing OERs in collaboration with CLT to offer workshops, seminars, and consultations. We are putting up a model that continuously refines itself in keeping with the changes in courses and pedagogy. It will establish collaborations within and outside the country to identify effective models of OER platforms, and to share resources and best practices.
