Abstract
At the University of British Columbia, we host a variety of open source software platforms to support instructors in adopting various teaching practices. This session will specifically focus on MediaWiki, WordPress, and H5P as tools for instructors interested in incorporating open practices into their courses and projects. We will go over use cases, and discuss the challenges and considerations we encounter in supporting both instructors and students.
