Hi everyone

A brief reminder (and apology for duplicate postings)  -- The OER foundation is proud to host Paul Seiler from the New Zealand Ministry of Education for our 2nd session during Open Access Week 2010. The session starts in 1 3/4 hours time.

Pass the baton: How to run a faster race.

International Time | NZDT Tue, 19 Oct, 2010, Noon to 1pm | PDT (LA) Mon, 18 Oct, 2010, 4pm - 5pm.

Paul Seiler is Manager of Student Management Systems (SMS) and Managed Learning Environments (MLE) for the New Zealand Ministry of Education. Under Paul's direction and leadership, New Zealand has commenced work in building a national commons of reusable and portable content for the school sector. New Zealand is joining countries like the Netherlands and Brazil in fostering OER approaches for sharing teaching materials. Paul will highlight New Zealand's OER efforts and how this integrates with Aotearoa's education system.
