Dear colleagues,
BCcampus is hosting three webinars and sharing one podcast in honour of
Open Education Week, which takes place from March 7 to 11, 2022. We invite you to join us for the following:
When: March 8, 2022 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am PT
What: Amanda Coolidge facilitates a discussion about the OER Contributions Matrix, a document designed to help open education practitioners communicate the value of their work to tenure and promotion committees. Presenters include members of Driving
OER Sustainability for Student Success (DOERS3), which is the collaborative group that created this matrix.
When: March 9, 2022 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am PT
What: Krista Lambert, Carolee Clyne, and Melanie Meyers present on the Adult Basic Education Zero Textbook Cost project that B.C. is excited to launch after three and a half years of hard work. The presenters will talk about the dozens of OER that have
been created for this project and next steps for the program.
When: March 9, 2022 @ 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm PT
What: Melanie Meyers and Clint Lalonde showcase the progress over time of the B.C. Open Textbook Project, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2022. The presenters will talk about milestones, successes, and pitfalls, as well as look to
the future of open education in B.C.
When: March 11, 2022 @ 10:30 am – 11:30 am
What: The BCcampus OER Production team talk about how starting their work with open education as BCcampus co-op students shaped their perspective of the field. This conversation will be posted as a pre-recorded podcast with an accompanying transcript.
In addition to these Open Education Week events, BCcampus would also like to invite you to an upcoming FLO Course:
When: February 21, 2022 – March 4, 2022
What: This course is a short, practical introduction to the UDL framework and how you can apply it to create inclusive learning environments. Two synchronous sessions are planned (see the event for more details), and attendees are expected to invest
several asynchronous hours of study per week. This event has a $25 registration fee.
We hope that you can join us for these events!
Best,
I acknowledge that the land I live, work, and play on is the unceded territory of the
səl̓ilwətaɁɬ təməxʷ (Tsleil-Waututh), Skwxwú7mesh-ulh Temíx̱w (Squamish), and
xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) peoples. I thank them for their hospitality.
