Open Education Resources (OER) @ FM

By design all content for all OER courses at FMCC appears in Blackboard every time the course runs.

This process involves two steps.

1. One changes are finished to OER content, a request for a cartridge to be exported must be made with OER Services or Lumen Learning

2. The exported cartridge must then be imported into Blackboard.
