Ready to reduce textbook costs while expanding teaching possibilities? Join this interactive two-hour workshop exploring the world of Open Educational Resources (OER). You will be introduced to the fundamentals of OER, including what they are, why they matter, and how they support accessible, flexible, and innovative teaching and learning. In the second hour, through guided, hands-on activities, you can apply practical strategies for locating high-quality, program-specific open resources and evaluating them for classroom use. Beyond being free, OER empower educators to adapt, customize, and creatively integrate materials that reflect their teaching style and meet diverse learner needs.
