Open Education Grants program: Call for proposals is open!
by Rosario Passos
Hi there fellow open educators!
The call is now open for Open Education Grant proposals and will close October 18. You can find details about the call for proposals here:
https://www.bcit.ca/open/grants/
Due to budget constraints this year, funding will be limited for this call and individual grant funding will be up to $5,000. The Open Education Working group will first consider proposals from applicants who have not already received an open education grant.
Please share this information widely across your networks at BCIT!
Cheers,
Rosario

Hi there fellow Open Educators,
In my last email, sharing two new open resources available, I said they were available in the BCcampus repository, but that was a mistake. Those two resources are available in the KPU repository, as you can see in the links below:

Interculturalizing the Curriculum

Interculturalizing the Curriculum is the third in a series of educator development resources on interculturality. Developed for the KPU Intercultural Teaching Program, this short book engages educators in two main strands of interculturalizing the curriculum: (1) revising curriculum to reflect intercultural learning outcomes, and diverse content from multiple perspectives, and (2) supporting student interculturality development.
