Learning by design in teacher education: Using open educational resources for STEM lesson design

• In Event: TED - Creative Strategies for Preparing Pre-service Teachers

Short Description

The current study recognizes the potential of OERs as a high-quality source of STEM teaching. Pre-service teachers are expected to benefit from a lesson design activity with OERs for their future teaching. We are proposing 1) a conceptual model that illustrates how pre-service' teacher's practice can be improved with OERs through the lens of example-based learning and distributed cognition, 2) design guidelines for a lesson design activity with OER for pre-service teachers, and 3) a website to support the design activity
