Zaid Ali Alsagoff of ZaidLearn (via Stephen Downes) provides what he terms “one smashing post” of links to open courseware (OCW) and open educational resources (OER). It is a mega roundup for sure! When asked within the comments section, “Do you mind if I share it with my academics?”, Zaid notes:
” Of course you can share it with the academics. Actually, the whole idea of this post is to speed up the awareness of wonderful OCW and OER out there …”
Also, from the comments section in Stephen’s post, Tony Hirst offers us a Google custom search engine that will search the domains linked in Zaid’s post. Very cool!

Hi Jennifer Maddrell,
Thanks for sharing this OCW/OER post with your readers
I hope it will get more people excited about OCW and OER. It is amazing the amount of learning gems you can find within these repositories if we just begin the learning journey
Warm Regards,
Zaid (or ZaidLearn)
