Dear colleagues,
I hope you can join us for the following webinar on Tuesday, October 6, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. PDT: Publishing Indigenous Perspectives Online: How RavenSpace Editors Approach Collaboration<https://bccampus.ca/event/publishing-indigenous-perspectives-online-how-rav…>.
RavenSpace, developed by UBC Press, is a digital platform for publications that aims to support Indigenous community-based research and authorship. It functions as a place where, with community permission, Indigenous knowledge can be shared, but also protected—where knowledge holders may maintain and assert their cultural protocols that govern how certain materials should be accessed, and by whom. In this session, we will show how RavenSpace has integrated publishing and web design workflows with the needs and rights of Indigenous community members and authors. We will share some of RavenSpace’s collaborative approaches, and, more broadly, will discuss additional ways to build cultural considerations into editorial and design choices. Attendees are welcome to share their own examples of approaching culturally sensitive materials in a collaborative environment, as we will allow time for discussion.

I received this request from an instructor. Any assistance would be appreciated.
"Open source question banks: since creating questions is time consuming, I have been looking for some open source Calculus canvas question banks that I could just import into my course and modify as needed. I have looked at OpenStax and in the Canvas Commons but I haven’t found anything particularly useful yet nor a way to import a canvas quiz question bank from any of these sources. Do you have any suggestions for me regarding this?"

Hi folks,
Each month the Ontario Open Library Network hosts a webinar on a topic related to Open Education. While these generally feature topics of interest to Ontario educators or Ontario-based OER projects, we welcome attendees from anywhere, so long as they are interested in learning more about open. This month’s webinar is quite special because we’re featuring the students who run the Ontario Tech U OER Lab. The OER Lab is a student-run, staff-managed service point for faculty interested in OER work. These students get a great job, some experiential learning, and the chance to make change around curricular resources on campus.
Supporting Open Work: The OER Lab at Ontario Tech University
Across Ontario, colleges and universities are finding unique ways to support the creation of high quality open resources. Join us this month to take a closer look at Ontario Tech's OER Lab- a student-run, staff-managed group that brings content and technological expertise to the timely creation of high quality OER that will be used directly in an Ontario Tech undergraduate course by Ontario Tech students. Hear from Sarah Stokes, Faculty Development Officer in the Teaching and Learning Centre and OER Lab co-manager, and from the students who work in the lab.

Hello!
For those able to join us tomorrow for the Canada OER meeting, I have started an agenda on the google doc (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KuWFCekNe2iKjS4mY5DGzy2KsgMdXidfWtkkSIi… ) – as you can see I have some larger questions I would like to ask the group to identify what our future goals should be and how we move things forward.
In addition, if you feel comfortable, I thought we could assist each other in “open”-related challenges we are facing. At the end of meeting, for those who want to stay on, I will divide us into small groups and you can present your challenge to you small group. The small group will then make suggestions, ask coaching questions, and help you identify how to handle the next steps in your challenge.
Looking forward to chatting with you all!
Amanda

This year’s theme of “Reimagining Open Education” seeks to inspire

intersections of open education with COVID-19, social justice,
sustainability, effective practices, how to get started, and more.

Dear friends and colleagues,
We are overjoyed to announce the publication today of Open at the Margins: Critical Perspectives on Open Education<https://press.rebus.community/openatthemargins/>. This curated collection, published by the Rebus Community, includes 38 chapters contributed by 43 diverse authors. The book represents a starting point towards curating and centering marginal voices and non-dominant epistemic stances in open education, an attempt at critical pluriversalism. We hope that the global open education community will find this volume to be a helpful resource and encourage you to share it within your networks.
You are invited to join us in celebrating the launch of the new book/collection via a Virtually Connecting Missed Conversation. We hope that many of you will join us in this session, and feel free to share the registration information with anyone else - it is open to all!
The session will take place via Zoom on Friday August 21st, at 6pm UTC (see the Virtually Connecting announcement page to see the conversion to your timezone<http://virtuallyconnecting.org/blog/2020/08/17/missed-conversation-launchin…>).
All are welcome to join the session and participate. Here is the link to register: https://aucegypt.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJUrfuirrT4jGtBvmUsQjEV3Zwah66W00…
The session will be livestreamed and recorded via Virtually Connecting’s YouTube channel, and later embedded in the Virtually Connecting site.
Warmest regards,
Maha, Catherine, Laura, Robin, and Rajiv
