Critical Path

Why?

Consider: 

Why is OER a value-add to our PLCs?  

Since 2020-21 is the first year the new 4th level math courses will be taught, how might #GoOpenNC be of particular interest to our 4th level math PLCs?

What

Consider:

What more do PLC members need to learn about OER, OEP, and/or open licensing? Rather than making assumptions, what are ways to find out what PLC members already know?

What would be the best way to familiarize PLC members with the platform so they can spend some time learning about its features and functionality?

How might our PLC contribute content to the platform?

Discussion/Notes:



Action Items:




Who?

Consider: 

We know there are OER champions already in our district/school. How can we best connect with them to discuss GoOpenNC?

How can we best determine other instructional leaders in our district/school who can join us as thought partners as we investigate OER/OEP?

Discussion/Notes:



Action Items:




When?

Consider: 

When are there opportunities for teachers and instructional leaders to engage in professional learning related to OER?

When the district/school reviews and selects instructional materials, can we consider OER and how those materials can be utilized?

Action Items:




How?

Consider: 

We need to determine what resources are available to support the new 4th level math standards.  Additionally, what supports are needed to ensure PLC members utilize high quality, standards aligned resources.

How can we best support PLC members as they find, vet, use, and create OER?

How can we provide opportunities for teachers to curate and align OER to standards?
