Hi everyone,

The Open University (OU) announces that it is increasing access to OER
by joining
the OERu <http://oeru.org/news/ou-joining-oeru/>. This announcement
coincides with the launch of Badged Open Courses
<http://oeru.org/news/the-open-university-launches-badged-open-courses/> (BOCs)
at the OU.

The BOC initiative will widen academic support for OERu learners who are
embarking on university study with a collection of foundation courses
including, for example:
