Teachers are always in need of teaching materials to explain and to illustrate concepts or just to keep their students active and alert. But making your own teaching materials can be time consuming and expensive. Wouldn’t it be convenient if you could use existing materials in your own course? In some cases you can! But you have to make sure you take the right steps.

In the blog How to reuse teaching materials from others we explain in four steps what you have to do when you want to (re)use materials from others: finding the material, copyright checking, reusing it and citing it.
