Sociology is the study of social groups, structures, processes, institutions, and events. This course will focus on understanding and applying the sociological perspective, which stresses the importance of the impact of social forces external to the individual in shaping peopleęs lives and experiences. This idea that we are all profoundly affected by the society in which we live is the guiding light of sociology. Sociologists also study the ways in which people, as they interact, shape their social systems. Topics studied will include socialization, social interaction, culture, groups, social structure, deviance, social inequality, social class, race, gender, institutions (political, economic, educational, family, and religious), collective behavior and social change. Students will be asked to learn the basic concepts, theories, and perspectives of sociology, to see how these operate in terms of social processes, structures, and events, and to apply this knowledge to better understand the social world.

These Google Documents from Liberty Public Schools (LPS) include their #GoOpen Course Curriculum for the OER courses the district has written so far. Also includes resources that other districts can use for their OER adoption work, including the LPS OER Copyright Guidelines, LPS OER Budget Template, an the LPS OER Vetting Document, among other resources.

Welcome to the study of human growth and development, commonly referred to as the “womb to tomb” course because it is the story of our journeys from conception to death. Human development is the study of how we change over time.  Although this course is offered in psychology, this is a very interdisciplinary course. Psychologists, nutritionists, sociologists, anthropologists, educators, and health care professionals all contribute to our knowledge of life span.

Growth and development through the life span including physical, social, cognitive and neurological development. Topics covered included daycare, education, disabilities, parenting, types of families, gender identity and roles, career decisions, illnesses and treatments, aging, retirement, generativity, and dying.Login: guest_oclPassword: ocl

This is a web-based, interactive, introductory linear algebra text. Interactive elements include auto-graded exercises, built-in GeoGebra activities, and Octave code.

This is an introductory-level course designed for global post-secondary educators interested in learning more about open education, open educational resources (OER), and open educational practices (OEP). The purpose of the course is to increase awareness and use of OER as part of global teaching and learning, and to connect education communities with each other. Participation within the course discussion forums requires enrolment through the OpenLearn system and may enrich your learning experience through interactions. There will also be social media and blogging opportunities to connect through Twitter and other spaces that you choose.

This course is an application of common electrical concepts and relay ladder logic/motor control circuits used in industry to maintain and troubleshoot electrical power and control systems, including variable frequency drive systems. Students will learn how to install, operate, maintain, and troubleshoot single-phase transformers, NEMA and IEC contactors & motor starters, motor branch circuits, and reversing circuits (power & control). A heavy focus of the course will be on variable frequency drives. Students will learn to install, maintain, program and troubleshoot industrial programmable VFDs. The course will focus on 3 types of VFD: Automation Direct’s GS2, Allen Bradley PowerFlex 70 and Allen Bradley PowerFlex 525. After completing this course the student will:
1. Install and troubleshoot single phase transformers.
2. Explain, calculate and measure power distribution voltages
3. Explain and troubleshoot NEMA and IEC contactors and motor starters
4. Install and troubleshoot three phase motor branch circuit.
5. Install and troubleshoot three phase motor reversing circuits.
6. Explain the basic operation of a programmable variable frequency drive
7. Wire and configure a programmable variable frequency drive
8. Program and troubleshoot a variable frequency drive
9. Configure and interface a VFD to an AB CompactLogix PLC
10. Explain the signal/data flow in a PLC based system to control a VFD

OER Passport is a professional development program that takes educators through the process of understanding, finding, developing and sharing Open Educational Resources.
This course trains teachers and students on OER use, reuse, licensing, creation, and sharing by completing the following tasks. The first three tasks lay a solid foundation and provide teachers with the tools to complete the last three tasks which focus on the use, reuse, production, and innovative teaching practices.
Participants can complete the tasks online. There are also files to print/create physical copies of OER Passports that can be used in an offline environment.

The aim of the Open Education Design - Course for Practitioners is to equip the participants with basic knowledge, practical advice and hands-on experience to prepare them for their own design of Open Educational Resources (OER).

During the 5-day course, the participants became familiar with open education design processes, methods and tools. They learned from OER experts and practitioners how to align open education with developmental and strategic goals, they got basic knowledge about OE concepts, about pedagogical and didactical issues as well as about content related issues in OE.

To empower the participants for making a crucial step from an idea to the implementation of concrete OERs, platforms and tools for open education design was addressed, followed with hands-on experience and a session on OER evaluation.
