POWER Library OER Commons Hub Launched!
We are excited to announce the launch of the POWER Library OER Hub, created to support PA educators through this upcoming, unprecedented school year and beyond. The hub is already populated with a handful of lesson plans created specifically for POWER Library application; they are ready to download and remix.
But as those of you familiar with OER are aware, an OER hub will only be as useful and effective as its members and their contributions. So this is a call to action. We invite each of you to dip your toes in the water by joining the POWER Library OER Hub:
