The state of Maryland officially committed to the federal #GoOpen Movement on February 26, 2016. As part of this commitment a repository was created to house resources aligned to Maryland standards at:
Maryland's OER Project: PreK-12
Maryland is excited to collaborate and share free openly licensed digital resources with all national stakeholders. We feel that this effort has:
- Identified current and relevant quality resources that support UDL practices
- Reduced redundancy of efforts
- Provided engaging and interactive resources
- Supported personalized teaching and learning
- Provided anytime, anywhere access
As a #GoOpen state, Maryland has:
- Implemented a statewide technology strategy that includes the use of openly licensed resources
- Developed and maintains a statewide repository
- Participated in a community of practice
- Created a webpage to share the commitment to and progress for #GoOpen
