History: OER Research

Preview of version: 4

The use of open educational resources (OERs) in art history courses is relatively new, and a largely unresearched topic, especially related to effectiveness of knowledge acquisition in direct comparison to traditional textbook instructional strategies. This page is a growing compilation of references and resources that is meant as a starting point for those interested in the topic of OERs and in future research of this topic. 

There have been several different approaches to compiling and sharing OERs at colleges, two of which are compiling them within specific courses and shared through the institution LMS, and the other is through topical library pages. The former concept makes access to these compiled resources difficult, if not impossible for those replicating efforts outside of the institution. The later may provide general coverage, often with an over-abundance of material, requiring curation from faculty to narrow down and target reading to support lessons. 

What is provided below is a growing list of locations to find material that is open for instructors teaching art history and research related to the study of OERs informing study of teaching and learning (SOTL) research:
