OER repositories - temoa
With the intention to collaborate in the struggle to reduce global education gap and enrich the learning process, seeks to support the educational community to find those resources and materials that meet their needs for teaching and learning, through a collaborative system of specialized search and social tools.
Aware of the advances in technology worldwide and the hundreds of new resources that are published each day on the Internet, the way we see the world has changed, this also has a significant impact on education, both in the way of learning as in the way of teaching. It is a reality that information is available in massive and exponential way, mainly through digital media on the Internet. The vast majority of the times, information is accessed freely without any filter, raising questions about its authenticity, validity, and reliability.
