OpenRUB: platform for freely accessible and open teaching and learning materials

OpenRUB is the platform for freely accessible and open teaching and learning materials (Open Content and Open Educational Resources) for all faculties of the Ruhr-University Bochum.

The published teaching and learning materials have been developed within the framework of courses and are presented in various formats:

• Moodle courses: information, self-study and OpenCourseWare (OCW) courses & preliminary courses
• course concepts: also presented in Moodle or on external websites
• videos from courses: YouTube channels, lecture recordings, tutorial videos
• websites: Teaching/learning and information materials
• individual materials: i.a. slides, exercise sheets, old exams, scripts, pictures, videos or data (open data)

The learning objectives are listed in the descriptions of the individual learning offers. Some materials are licensed under Creative Commons and can therefore be reused and adapted. These materials are displayed separately. The licenses are enclosed in the learning offering.

OpenRUB is intended to give all people the opportunity to access online educational materials of the RUB in order to further their education. As a repository of the Ruhr-University Bochum, teaching and learning opportunities are presented by members of the RUB.
