As you progress, you’ll discover commonly used tools for creating these assignments and consider the important design choices that shape open educational practices. By the end, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge and strategies to integrate open pedagogy into your own teaching, fostering deeper engagement and meaningful contributions from students.
