Education for Sustainable Development

The National Resource Hub is Ireland’s central platform for sharing and accessing Open Educational Resources (OER). By contributing your OER, you can help support educators, students, and institutions across the sector by making high-quality learning materials freely available.

What Can Be Submitted?

You can submit any openly licensed teaching and learning materials, including:

• Educational Materials (e.g., lecture slides, course notes, instructional guides, open textbooks)
• Multimedia Learning Resources (e.g., recorded lectures, podcasts, animations, simulations, interactive tools, digital exhibits)
• Assessments and Feedback (e.g., quizzes, exams, rubrics, peer-assessment frameworks, formative feedback resources)
• Open Pedagogical Practices (OEPs) (e.g., student-created resources, open assessments, co-creation projects, community-based learning activities)
• Research and Policy Resources (e.g., academic papers, reports, policy frameworks, case studies, conference presentations, datasets)
• Accessibility and Inclusive Learning (e.g., alternative formats, assistive technology guides, inclusive curriculum resources, universal design for learning materials)
• Professional Development and Training (e.g., CPD resources, educator training modules, workshops, digital skills development, communities of practice)
• Open Software and Technology (e.g., educational apps, open-source platforms, learning management system plugins, digital resource repositories)

All submitted resources should be openly accessible and licensed under Creative Commons or a similar open licence.
