I'm researching the potential for more effective use of open educational resources (OERs) in aquatic sciences education. This survey-based research is under the University of Stirling's Institute of Aquaculture. The research aims to contribute towards the AQUA-TNET and EURASTIP's initiative on training and education links between Europe and Asia by examining perspectives and use of Open Educational Resources (OERs) in aquatic sciences higher education across the world.

I'm exploring the following questions: Would aquatic sciences students & educators benefit from and want to use OERs? Would they be willing to create and openly distribute their own educational materials? What would motivate them to do so? Would institutions benefit from having their own OERs and OER repositories, like MIT OpenCourseWare? If not, why not? If so, what would be the best way for them to do so?

The survey should only take 10 minutes. Your participation would help me get great results, which I can happily share with you. Please follow the links below to the survey.

Raffle drawing winner will receive a £50 Amazon Gift Card. The winner has been randomly selected and contacted via email.
