WikiEducator:Student Generated Content

Welcome to the Student-Generated Content portal

Why this portal?
This portal is being developed to support the activities of K12 students developing OER. It is built on the belief that if we are to assist students in learning how to learn in the 21st century then we have to support them in creating the curricula themselves. Once we have the students generating and localizing the OER, then we have the greatest possibility of meeting the MDG.
