OportUnidad Open Day in Ecuador

The Open Day Event is organised in conjunction with the 3rd project working meeting that will take place on September 11 and 12, 2013 at the premises of the Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja, Ecuador. The event is intended as an “open workshop” as to involve other faculty members, students and a wider audience inside and outside the hosting institution. During the open day, the training course in “Open Educational Practices and Resources” ("REA Y PEA") will be launched. It is an on-line training course for university teachers organized in a logical sequence going from the presentation and framing of the OER movement, until the integration of open practices into mainstreaming activities.
