This PedRes Card Directory is divided into five sections:

It contains publications resulting from a range of pedagogic projects and activities both at Anglia Ruskin, including our Anglia Ruskin University Teaching Fellowship Awards, Learning and Teaching Project Awards, and the Good Teaching Exchange, and external projects.

In addition to textual resources, such as journal articles, reports, and papers, the Directory also includes links to a range of multimedia resources.

About the Directory

The Directory is concerned with the open sharing of pedagogic resources among the Anglia Ruskin community, and beyond. The publications in this Directory focus on research into learning, teaching, and assessment in higher education at Anglia Ruskin University.

Anglia Learning & Teaching has built this online repository containing links to a large body of learning, teaching, assessment, and support resources.

The Directory is provided as a resource to support teaching, to capture ongoing work, for those interested in undertaking research, or wishing to use current research results for reference, or as a means to develop their own teaching.

Directory Management Team

Anglia Learning & Teaching is responsible for the day-to-day running of the Directory and meeting its stated outcomes. The team comprises:

About Open Educational Resources

Open Educational Resources (OERs) are resources for learning and teaching that are made freely available to users. Although they are copyright material, they are licensed to the academic community for use under specified conditions. These may include restrictions on commercial use or the option to modify the resources. However, the resources are shared across the community, and can be used freely.

Open Educational Resources provide an effective way to disseminate and share materials. The Higher Education Academy lists nine key benefits of OERs to UK Higher Education institutions, staff and students. These include raising standards in learning materials; achieving greater value for money; allowing resources to be re-purposed, and raising institutional and individual profiles.

The Directory has been purpose-built to allow users to share open educational resources. By providing freely-licensed OERs, the Directory will:

Offer educators a valuable bank of pedagogic research resources to support their teaching and their students’ learning.
Provide teacher-educators and researchers with examples of best practice.
Stimulate new approaches to pedagogic research
Allow the re-use and re-purposing of resources, thereby extending their value outside their original context.
