Hi Shawn & Wilma,
What a nice surprise to see your post on the list! This is a great
opportunity for Belize to establish a national OER portal. After running
your face-to-face workshops -- feel free to spread the news about our free
workshops we offer every month (http://wikieducator.org/L4C )
I've taken the liberty of setting up a national portal page for Belize. See:
http://www.wikieducator.org/OERBZ
(You'll find some information here on how to tweak and customise your page:
http://tinyurl.com/yjltzd7 )
You can use this page as a hub for building and expanding OER among schools
in Belize.
WE is expanding rapidly in the school sector. Feel free to take a look at
these national portals for ideas on how you might expand and build your
national OER project:
- New Zealand (http://www.wikieducator.org/OERNZ)
- Uganda (http://wikieducator.org/OERUG )
- Israel (http://wikieducator.org/Israel_Schools_OER_Portal)
Wouldn't it be amazing if we could connect schools in New Zealand, Uganda,
Israel and Belize in collaborating on OER in support of their respective
national curricula :-).
Great to see how your WikiAmbassador work continues!
Cheers
Wayne
