SUNY Empire State College President Alan R. Davis has announced the college has joined the Open Education Resource university as the first anchor partner in the United States. Further, the college has established a presence on the WikiEducator community website facilitated by the Open Education Resource Foundation. “By joining OERu as the first United States’ anchor partner and participating in advancing open educational resources, Empire State College will expand its own reach far beyond our 35 locations around the state and extend the national and global reach for SUNY,” said Davis. “Most importantly, we will join the global community of learners who contribute to and benefit from the expansion and dissemination of open educational resources.” WikiEducator acts as a collaborative node for the OERu concept and aids in achieving goals such as the planning of educational projects to develop free open education resources and to develop free content for e-learning.
