Overview of TDP4HE
The TDP4HE project aims to develop a model that links transformative pedagogies (both learner-centred and teacher-centred approaches) with the use of digital technologies and to develop a transdisciplinary training programme to foster innovative ways of teaching and learning for academic teaching staff from different disciplines.

Introduction to OERs and OEPs
Open practitioners foster an inclusive and participatory environment in academia, where knowledge is shared widely and access to information is democratized. Open practices promote transparency, accessibility, and collaboration in research and education. This encompasses conducting research in a way that makes methodologies, data, and findings accessible to other educators and learners. This includes sharing data sets, publications, and protocols openly, often through repositories, open-access journals and Open Educational Resources (OER) digital platforms to enhance educational pedagogies within tertiary education.
OERs are designed to improve educational access and quality by reducing costs for student learners and allowing educators to tailor resources to their specific teaching practice. The underlying principle of OER is that knowledge should be freely shared to promote learning and collaboration. This offers cost savings by providing free or low-cost learning materials, making education more accessible. It enables collaboration and sharing among educators, promoting the sharing of resources, best practices, and innovative teaching strategies. This will lead to quality improvement via community network peer review and continuous improvement and updating of resources. OERs can be accessed by learners via an internet connection using phones, tablets and laptops, promoting inclusivity and reaching learners who might not have access to traditional resources or modern digital flexible learning.
