The Language OER Network (LOERN, pronounced ‘learn’) showcases the work of open educators in the field of language learning and teaching. If you are a language educator who uses, creates, or promotes open educational resources (OER) and open educational practices (OEP), COERLL would like to recognize your innovations by listing your name here and by assigning to you a COERLL digital badge. (A digital badge is an online representation of earned knowledge or skills.)
