Sharing your OER

There are four main ways to distribute OERs.

There are many sites not specific to OER that can be used to share them. Explore the sites mentioned below. Remember the sites are owned; they are not truly open.

The other option is to share your files by making a public folder on Dropbox, Box or Google Drive. You can also share your resources on your own webspace.

If you don’t have your own webspace already you could try one of the following sites or explore making your own.

You don’t have to share your OER online. There are many conferences, community meetings or other events where people would welcome the inclusion of OER in a paper based format.

There are lots of platforms, directories and repositories where you can share OER with the wider community. See "Platforms, directories and repositories" below for more informtion.
