Dear colleagues,
This is a second invitation to attend a virtual meeting from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. Pacific on
Wednesday, March 13, titled Touching Base: A Conversation about Open Education in B.C.
Post-Secondary<https://bccampus.ca/event/touching-base-a-conversation-about-open-education-in-b-c-post-secondary/>.
We invite people who support open education at post-secondary institutions in B.C. and the
Yukon to a conversation about their practice and challenges. This discussion will
encompass topics such as:
* Methods for supporting open education initiatives at your institution
* Common challenges encountered in this endeavour
* Strategies for mutual support among peers
Following this event, our aim is to foster an active community of practice to sustain
ongoing dialogue about open education within B.C. and the Yukon.
The conversation will be facilitated by Emily Schudel of Camosun College and Lauri Aesoph
of BCcampus. There will not be a video recording of the meeting, but notes will be taken
and shared in a Google Doc.
Please share with anyone doing open education work in post-secondary in B.C. or the Yukon
who might be interested in participating.
Thank you,
Arianna Cheveldave she/her
