When you register at Open-Of-Course you become part of a self-supporting community. All our courses have fora, where people can communicate and help each other. So if you join us, we hope you will become an active community member. Everyone has knowledge and skills that can help others. If there is a subject where you have good knowledge off, we would like to invite you to volunteer on helping open-of-course grow:
We are looking especially for:
- Language coordinators for all languages: your tasks will be finding open content educational material in the language of your choice and add it to our system and coaching translators for existing courses to other languages.
- Translators who like to translate existing courses to other languages.
- Course developers who want to share their knowlegde and add their own content to our portal.
- Forum admins who want to admin one or more of our fora
If you are interested, you can contact us for more information at info@open-of-course.org.
Open Content
Human knowledge does only have value if it can be shared. That is why Open-Of-Course mainly publishes educational information that is published as open content. Open content makes it possible to share educational information, because the licenses explicitly allow that. Licenses you see here are mainly gpl and creative commons licenses. They give users the right to share our courses with others, print the material and spread it, etc.
If you would like to see your own course-materials published here, but for some reason can not share that under a free license, you can contact us. We sometimes make an exception if the content is valuable for our students.
Moodle
Open-Of-Course is based on the free and open source electronic learning environment Moodle. Need your own Moodle site for your business or school? Welcome to contact Mingos.nl
