Hey folks,
We are so excited to be resuming our monthly webinar series with a much-requested topic! Join us on Feb 9 at 12 PM ET for a facilitated discussion about "open-washing". "faux-pen" and other commercial practices surrounding OER and open education. The discussion will feature Ali Versluis and Heather Martin, who will discuss the work they've done at the University of Guelph to support folks in navigating these tricky waters. Bring your stories, ideas, and questions! Registration and more information available here: https://ecampusontario.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMscuurrz4jG9E2B3pOFVjTXk5…
All are welcome to attend!
Best,
Lillian

Hi everyone,
The annual OER conference and the Domains conference are teaming up for 2021, into #OERxDomains21<https://oer21.oerconf.org/> in April! I personally have never been to the OER conference b/c it’s held in the UK and I haven’t been travelling much lately (even before the pandemic), and I’m excited to join this great combination of conferences online. I thought some of you might be interested as well.
Below is more information and a link to the call for proposals—proposals are due Jan. 31.

· Theme 4: Shifts in agency and creativity as empowerment of learners and educators;
· Theme 5: Open Source Tools: infrastructure, cloud environments, targeted teaching tools.
Wildcard proposals that specifically address the conference themes in relation to open practice, research and policy are also welcome.

Hello Ms. Brin,
I am a Library Technology Student at SAIT currently enjoying a practicum with Jessica Norman at the SAIT Reg Erhardt Library. I am helping Jessica plan for OE Week at SAIT and I have registered for the Coffee Chat next week. Attending your Coffee Chat as an observer will help me learn more about the Canadaoer community and OE Week.
I thought as I've never appeared on a Canadaoer attendee list in the past that an introduction may be in order.
I'm looking forward to the event next week!
Best regards,
