Webinar: Making the Case for Open Educational Resources: Evidence-based Tools to Elevate Your Advocacy Efforts – Aug 30
Posted by American Association of Colleges and Universities on July 25, 2023
This webinar will launch a new AAC&U publication, Making the Case for Open Educational Resources. Open educational resources (OER) are openly licensed, no-cost educational materials, such as free online textbooks, that have been shown to have a variety of benefits for students and their learning. As the title suggests, Making the Case for Open Educational Resources is designed to assist OER advocates in their work to craft persuasive presentations, publications, and arguments as they promote OER. While resulting from an exhaustive review of the literature, this publication and webinar are not intended to present a comprehensive summary of all the research regarding OER and open practices. Their purpose is to highlight key studies, utilizing attractive and easy-to-comprehend graphics that OER advocates can leverage to inform and underpin their advocacy efforts in various contexts and to various audiences. The webinar, publication, and associated infographic downloads (made available following the webinar) aim to immediately help campus advocates and leaders more easily make an evidence-based case for OER.
Date and Time: August 30, 2023, 2:00-3:00 PM
