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.
