Resourcefully Assessing: Critical Approaches to Assessment Series | Quality Indicators for Open Educational Resources (OER)

Join us for our first event in the Resourcefully Assessing — Critical Approaches to Assessment series, hosted by the Outreach & Assessment working group. This series will explore a variety of assessment strategies for different resource and collection types. In this coffee chat, Joanna Schimizzi will discuss quality indicators for Open Educational Resources (OER). We’ll share example resources, rubrics, and templates that support you in finding and evaluating OER, with a focus on primary source sets. Part of the conversation will of course focus on student needs and on the opportunity to customize and localize resources to build robust sets of work.

Joanna Schimizzi is a Biology teacher in North Carolina and a Professional Learning Specialist with ISKME. While getting her Master’s in Education from Northeastern University, she became extremely interested in classroom culture and student identity. This led her to work with ISKME and OER Commons to support educators in finding Open Educational Resources (OER) so that resources can be modified and remixed to include a wider variety of perspectives and experiences. Joanna is mom to two boys and lives with her husband in a little town outside of Charlotte, NC.
