Workspace for the International Open Educational Resources Exchange
The Institute for the Study of Knowledge Management in Education (ISKME) is sponsoring an Open Educational Resources (OER) Exchange project among classrooms internationally including the United States, Chile, Italy, Estonia, and possibly other interested countries/collaborators. Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that are free to use and reuse for educational purposes. This project will be highlighted at the iSummit in Sapporo, Japan, 2008.

OER Commons
OER Commons supports this project by providing a single point of access through which educators, students, and all learners can search, browse, evaluate, download, and discuss OER that are freely available online. If you login to OER Commons, you can save your searches for future use and re-use. Explore OER Commons by searching for climate change resources and environmental studies resources.
Learn how to use OER Commons.
Participants in this project will tag useful materials with the common tag, Climate Change Exchange, so all participants can easily find these resources.
