OER/ Powerpoints

The point of a Flipped Classroom is to have students practice applying key concepts with feedback while they are in class which prepares students to use these learned key concepts to then check their understanding and extend their learning. I believe this is a very important and essential way of learning so that they can learn and reach their educational potential. 

Open Educational Resources (OER) are any type of educational materials that are in the public domain or introduced with an open license. The nature of these open materials means that anyone can legally and freely copy, use, adapt and re-share them. It's an available resources list for groups that provide flexible environment to organize, create, share, and discuss resources with others in your network. Collaborate with group members, tag, and add resources to shared folders, create your own collections, all within a public or private group. Being able to use these Open Educational Resources is a way to gather educational resources for anything you need. 

OERu is a Free Online Course for Students Worldwide. This website provides students a way to expand their digital literacy while applying these skills in a business setting. This resource will allow students to gather information and apply these to their personal businesses for projects that they are working on now, and also be able to apply them in their careers in the future if they chose to go into the business world. Being knowledgable about digital literacy in this time period that we live in is essential to the success of a business. 

One of the skills that I was mostly excited to learn about when using powerpoint was to be able to make quizzes. I thought that there was a complicated way of doing it, but it was actually just by the use of hyperlinking to the same slide on the same Powerpoint.
