This module explores how South African teachers can reorganize the spaces in which they teach, and the way in which time is organized in their schools, to improve learning.

The Recommendation on Open Educational Resources (OER) (40 C/32) was adopted at the 40th UNESCO General Conference in Paris on 25th November 2019 as the culmination of a long process of UNESCO engagement with the concept of OER. Now that it is adopted and a UNESCO Dynamic Coalition has been discussing the next steps, this raises the practical question of what steps government and educational institutions at all levels can do to help to operationalize the OER Recommendation.

The course is designed to equip second-year students with the skills in preparing and using teaching and learning resources, media and modern technology in teaching.

Following the adoption of the OER Recommendation1 in November 2019, UNESCO launched the OER Dynamic Coalition in March 2020. The launch meeting defined a Roadmap for the activities of the Dynamic Coalition. The Coalition aims to reinforce international and regional cooperation among all stakeholders in the first four areas of the UNESCO OER Recommendation and support governments in implementing the OER Recommendation.
