Hello Everyone,
See the below opportunity for all Canadian post-secondary faculty.
Open Choice invites Canadian faculty to review OER for their upcoming database
Choice, a publishing unit at the Association of College and Research Libraries, plans to
release a new online database of open educational resource (OER) reviews called Open
Choice. The new service will feature a significant collection of critical reviews of OER
targeted to teaching faculty, instructional designers, librarians, and university staff
charged with acquiring digital tools for instruction (IT, instructional technologies,
etc.).
We are looking for active teaching faculty who be interested in reviewing open educational
materials for Open Choice. The reviews are more substantive, averaging 2,000-2,500 words,
and use a structured review rubric. The rubric provides consistency in reviews and makes
them easier to write. All reviews go through a formal copyediting process. We are able to
provide a honorarium of $200 for each review.
If you are interested in reviewing, or have questions about Open Choice or the reviewing
process, please email Melissa Karp at [ mailto:mkarp@ala-choice.org | mkarp(a)ala-choice.org
] .
Regards,
Lauri
