Academic freedom, tailored course content, and affordability for students—these are important issues for so many faculty members today. Join your colleagues and Lumen Learning to find out how open educational resources (OER) can address all these issues and more.
This practical workshop will outline OER best practices, report findings from research on efficacy and impact of OER-based courses, and enable faculty members to explore new pedagogical approaches enabled via open education. Designed to appeal to both OER novices and to those faculty members who’ve attended Buffalo State’s previous OER workshops, this one-day event will bring attendees up to date with current developments in OER.
OER are designed for open sharing, collaboration, creativity, flexibility, and tailorability—both in online and in face-to-face courses. Learn how to adopt, adapt, and build OER to increase affordability and access for students, give faculty greater engagement in teaching and learning, and measure and demonstrate OER’s impact on educational outcomes and costs.
