Fwd: Call for fellows (update, Canadian applications encouraged!)

by Verena Roberts

I apologize for any cross-posting. Please share this information about open fellowship opportunities. This is an exciting opportunity for US and Canadian Open Educators ! Verena Roberts ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Clinton-Lisell, Virginia <virginia.clinton(a)und.edu> Date: Tue, May 2, 2023 at 9:20 AM Subject: Call for fellows (update, Canadian applications encouraged!) To: oer-research-fellows(a)googlegroups.com < oer-research-fellows(a)googlegroups.com> We are seeking applicants for the next cohort! I would really appreciate it if you would share the call for applications below in your professional networks. The Open Education Group thanks to generous support from the Hewlett foundation is seeking to support early career researchers to conduct studies in open education (what is open education, click here <https://sparcopen.org/open-education/>) through the open education research fellowship. The purpose is to support education professionals to develop their open education scholarship ideas into published works. Specifically, this fellowship seeks to provide mentorship, community, and some financial support to carry out their ideas in open education research. Financial support includes attendance at the Open Education Conference in 2023 (November 7-9, virtual) and 2024 (in person in the United States, TBD). The fellowship will also pay for article processing charges to allow for publications developed in this fellowship to be publicly available (around $3,000). In addition, fellows will receive a stipend of $1200 per article submitted prior to January 15, 2025, based on their fellowship work. Applications will be assessed based on its potential contribution to open education, feasibility, and novelty. In the application, prospective fellows will be asked to explain how your proposed research project would be relevant to diversity, inclusion, equity, and access to education. Applicants should have some prior research training and will be asked to list their previous research coursework. For the purpose of this fellowship, the following groups are considered early career researchers: doctoral graduate student (PhD, EdD, PsyD, DSW, DNP, DBA), postdoctoral researchers, pre-tenure faculty, teaching-track/clinical faculty (including librarians), and faculty at teaching-intensive institutions (liberal arts, community colleges, regional institutions, etc.), K-12 administrators and teachers, and public education employees. Full or part time status applicants are eligible. Tenured faculty at research institutions (R1 or R2) would generally not be considered early career researchers. Please feel free to contact Virginia Clinton-Lisell with questions about eligibility at virginia.clinton(a)und.edu. Note, due to legal reasons, we can only offer this fellowship to early career researchers working in the United States/Canada. If you have a work visa for the United States or Canada, please check with your visa guidelines regarding payment eligibility from the fellowship prior to applying. While this fellowship is limited to US and Canadian residents, we strongly encourage research projects with global perspectives, particularly in the Global South.

Introducing "Making Ripples": A Practical Handbook for Implementing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in OER.

by Kaitlin Schilling

Hi all, this message is cross-posted Rebus Community is thrilled to share our latest resource, Making Ripples: A Guidebook to Challenge the Status Quo in OER Creation <https://press.rebus.community/MakingRipples/>. Making Ripples is an open peer-reviewed and edited OER, created from programming insights from Rebus’ work with partners in Louisiana and Massachusetts. The Guide is designed to support educators in reframing their practices with care in an encouraging, conversational tone and includes examples for a wide range of OER resources and authors. The Guide is structured in five interconnected parts that build off one another, and contains opportunities for educators to reflect on their practice, identify strategies for action, and connect with resources and community members. In doing so, readers will create ripple effects of positive change in education and beyond. Our thanks go to all participants, facilitators, and partners in the Textbook Success Program cohorts in Louisiana (in the Interactive OER for Dual Enrollment project) and Massachusetts (via the Remixing Open Textbooks through an Equity Lens grant), as well as The Hewlett Foundation for funding this work. Our gratitude also to all of you readers and community for the supportive culture of sharing and learning! We hope this resource will be useful to you in different ways.
