OER Asia produced a Power Point giving a status report on OER in Hong Kong. Three main sources of OER were identified.
- The government's Education Bureau. It offers open content for primary and secondary schools, mainly through resource banks, DIY interactive activities, and a resources depository. These together provide free learning and teaching resources, including resources on IT in education, resources for teaching Kindergarten groups, a scheme involving native-speaking English teachers, information on good educational practices, links to other useful sites, quizzes and tests.
- The portals of educational institutions, particularly tertiary. Institutions have developed many open resources, free to the public. These institutions include: Independent Learning Centre, Chinese University of Hong Kong; English Language Centre, City University of Hong Kong; Virtual Language Centre, Hong Kong Polytechnic University; Telenex, which provides resources for teachers' use; The Self Learning College, a virtual college providing free materials.
- The Open University of Hong Kong's Free Courseware website (http://freecourseware.ouhk.edu.hk/fc/php/index_e.php?id=7dc6447179ddd0d9ba38a4b919d43b43&sid=0&lang=e) and external platform in iTunesU. This covers a large number of topics, and includes text, audio, visual and assessments.
