Open Educational Resources: Circular Textiles and Introduction to Speech Processing Research, Oct 26, 2023

Description

Open Educational Resources movement is rooted in accessible high-quality education and enables systematic change in teaching and learning content (https://oercommons.org/about). In this webinar, the audience will learn about two Open Educational Resources published by Aalto University researchers.
