Feedback on twillo

twillo is a good opportunity for us to make the project results visible and accessible to a broad public in the long term. The introductory event gave us important guidance on what we need to bear in mind when creating open educational resources.

Jade University

twillo makes it really easy to share materials. The option to publish related materials as series elements is also very nice. The support is outstanding, you always get helpful feedback with detailed explanations in a very timely manner. Great!

University of Paderborn

I like twillo as a platform because I have control over my materials myself and there are many possibilities for collaboration, versioning, etc. But twillo is even more: I really appreciate the networking that the project offers and the collegial interaction in the community.

Dr. Elisabeth Scherer

Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf

Thanks to twillo's good user interface, it was easy to publish the materials as OER and make them accessible to everyone. This enabled us to promote our module at conferences and provide access to it straight away.

twillo was a great help in understanding CC licenses and the basics of open educational resources. Thanks to the personal consultation, we were able to present our OER exactly as we wanted.

With twillo, we have found a simple way to make the results of our seminars accessible to students and teachers, but also to professionals from the field. So many can benefit from it.

What is particularly practical about twillo is that you can get a DOI for the published materials. The fact that the editors check for authorship and OER suitability gives me legal certainty.

Since we as a university do not yet have our own OER repository, twillo with its intuitive user interface enables us to easily disseminate teaching materials and thus promote the use of innovative teaching methods.

OER guarantee a non-commercial variety of media by education professionals for education professionals. My team and I use twillo to exchange ideas. This platform is very professionally structured and has an extremely appealing design.

twillo is a great way to make materials available to other groups of people in an uncomplicated way. The twillo team is a great support and very attentive when a mistake creeps in.

twillo offers a platform on which our courses can reach a larger target audience. The support and also the goal of being present on twillo help us to be able to afford the effort involved in creating OER.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Carsten Gips

OER is the open source for the education sector. twillo makes sharing and finding easier and is also very well integrated with OERSI.org. The team helps with difficulties within a very short time - this makes sharing fun :-)

Who shares wins! Twillo makes it possible to disseminate OER and to search for them specifically in order to use them and develop them further individually. In this way, Twillo makes a significant contribution to future-oriented higher education.
