• open textbooks
• lesson plans
• quizzes
• videos, animations, handouts
• interactive activities and tools
• presentations

Content grows daily as new educationnal domain and collections are added to OER UCLouvain.

The OER UCLouvain's content is organized around "educationnal domain". Within each domain there can be an unlimited number subdomain and an unlimited number of collections. Each collection may contain an unlimited number of learning objetcs.

Browse allows you to go through a list of learning objetcs in some specified order:

Browse by Domain/Collection takes you through the educationnal domain in alphabetical order and allows you to see the subdomains and collections within each educationnal domain.
