OSRE consists of readings, multiple choice exams, discussion questions, teaching strategies, and an online community. Easy to organize and cost-effective, OSRE was designed to serve the needs of research institutions facing tight budgets.

First-time instructors typically teach one of our syllabi. Experienced teachers design their own courses by adding readings, changing the order of topics, and introducing links. Every new syllabus added to the site creates synergistic benefits for the entire community. Look through the courses already constructed, and check back often for novel ideas.

* We'll open an experimental section with your name and institution. Give it a try. There are no fees, thanks to our sponsor, the National Science Foundation. Send a request to the managing editor at dgedelma@ncsu.edu.
