Dear colleagues,
The team behind the Decolonizing Together Symposium at UBC is pleased to invite contributions to their forthcoming Multimedia Ally Toolkit. Hosted on the Decolonizing Teaching Indigenizing Learning website<https://indigenizinglearning.educ.ubc.ca/decolonizing-together-symposium/>, this open toolkit will feature text-based, podcast, and video content to bring to light the perspectives and experiences of racialized and marginalized people previously absent in teacher education programming. Through this medium, they aim to address how Indigenous erasure, racism, ableism, and multiple other forms of oppression are taken up in the Faculties of Education at UBC and how to address existing gaps through changes to practice and policy.
Building on the thought-provoking presentations during the two Decolonizing Together Symposiums in October 2021 and January 2022, they continue to aim at cultivating a diverse community to create and sustain equitable and inclusive campuses and teacher education experiences. Topics addressed in this toolkit may include anti-racism, anti-oppression, anti-ableism, sexuality and gender discrimination, inclusive learning practice, and settler of colour experiences. Their goal is to provide in-service and pre-service teachers with practical and applicable approaches to addressing this content in their teaching, or for facing challenges related to these issues as they arise in day-to-day practice.
Interested contributors are asked to send a brief proposal (maximum 300 words) to the team by March 1, 2023.
Final papers and other content are due July 1, 2023.
Parameters for final works:
* Papers: 3500–5000 words (not including references)
* Audio: 10–15 minutes of podcast feed or other audio recording
* Video: 10 minutes in length
Submission timeline:
* Proposals due: March 1, 2023
* Acceptance notification: April 1, 2023
* Final works submitted: July 1, 2023
* Publication: September 1, 2023
The original call for proposals document is attached. Please direct any questions to Dr. Surita Jhangiani (surita.jhangiani(a)ubc.ca).

Hello,
Please excuse the cross posting but I want to reach out to those who are not on the canadaoer listserv.
The BC Open Education Librarians group is planning an event for Open Education Week<https://oeweek.oeglobal.org/> March 6 – 10, 2023 We are planning a session on how courses can be marked as having no textbook cost in their registration system. We know from Marking Open and Affordable Courses<https://uta.pressbooks.pub/markingopenandaffordablecourses/> that KPU does but we would like to know from others in B.C. if they are doing the same or even in the planning process. It would also be useful to know what registration system you use.
Thank you - your input and time is much appreciated.
Best,
Debra.

• Understand the ethics and legal implications of gathering and sharing digital information?
• Learn about the risks and benefits of having an online presence?
• Discover and choose educational software, digital tools and apps?
• Interpret and validate information?
• Use technology to collect, analyse, and share research?
• Create multimedia that can reach different audiences and share stories?
• Create healthy boundaries with technology and use digital tools to maintain well-being?
• Communicate and collaborate meaningfully with digital communities?
If the answer is “yes” to any of the above points, we would love to hear from you!
Content may be in the form of textbooks, courses or course materials, websites, videos, infographics, podcasts, book chapters, journal articles, tools or tutorials, etc.
Submissions must be openly licensed, or content an institution is willing to openly license and make shareable in the collection. Submissions will be reviewed by a group of evaluators from our sector prior to inclusion in the collection.

Hello All!
Registration is now OPEN<https://events.eply.com/2022ETUGWorkshopNov4> for the Fall Educational Technology Users Group Event on November 4. This year’s theme is: Digital Literacy!
[cid:image001.jpg@01D8E396.1E7DF380]
Despite the recovery from the pandemic, the number of academic programs and courses delivered in hybrid or fully online formats will likely remain high. At the same time, an increasing number of instructors are trying out HyFlex delivery — giving students options about whether they come to class or learn online. Digital literacy, for both instructors and students, impacts effective use of these delivery modes. But how can digital literacy support teaching and learning for online, hybrid, and HyFlex courses? What does a student need to be digitally literate? What does an instructor need to be digitally literate?
Hope to see you there
Amanda

UBC Library is excited once again to offer the Open Scholarship in Practice<https://libcal.library.ubc.ca/calendar/vancouver?cid=7544&t=g&d=0000-00-00&…> workshop and webinar series.
Open scholarship, which encompasses open science, open access, open data, open education, and all other forms of openness in the scholarly and research environment, is transforming how knowledge is created and shared.
Join us for webinars and presentations exploring the practice of open scholarship – from new tools that can increase the reproducibility of research, to new pedagogies that become possible when students and faculty become co-creators engaged in generative knowledge creation. Hear from colleagues who are incorporating “openness” in innovative ways to enhance teaching, research, and public impact.

Dear colleagues,
The following message is sent on behalf of Yingqi Tang of Jacksonville State University in Jacksonville, Alabama.

Hello,
We invite you to participate in a study of Academic Librarian’s perception of Open Educational Resources (OER). The purpose of this study is to learn your experience with using OER in your daily work as well as the self-efficacy, attitude, and intention of use towards OER. These findings will help us to better understand the current status of OER in academic libraries.
We plan to present these results at a conference and submit it for a scholarly publication. The survey is Web-based and is expected to take about 5 minutes to complete.
Please offer your unbiased view and be assured that your replies will remain anonymous and will only be reported in aggregate.
You can complete the survey using this Google Form: Academic Librarians’ Perception and Attitude towards OER Survey<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfR9UVEj0h0ePiFEnMZ_kVYH7-6Gw4qf5a…>.<https://forms.gle/jvjAJpcsHosaah8P7>
