Dear BCIT Open Education Community,
Welcome to the "Open BCIT" listserv!
In collaboration with BCcampus, BCIT has created and agreed to pilot the "Open
BCIT" listserv to be used to share information about open education news, events, and
resources at BCIT and BCcampus.
To post to this list, send your message to
openbcit@mail.bccampus.ca<mailto:openbcit@mail.bccampus.ca>.
As a participant you are free to use this listserv to disseminate your own open education
information and news, or to ask colleagues for assistance about open educational issues.
For instance:
* Looking for an open textbook in your subject area? Ask your BCIT colleagues for
ideas.
* Wondering how to use Pressbooks or create an open textbook adaptation? Use this
listserv to find out who has this expertise at BCIT.
* Wanting to find out details and deadlines for Open Education Grants? This is the
place to check in!
* Interested in designing a course assignment wherein students edit Wikipedia articles
or produce some other useful public resource? Reach out to colleagues who have already
done this.
* Know of a great event about Open Education coming up and don't know how to reach
all OpenEd advocates at BCIT? This is where you can post it!
You have been added to this list because of your participation or interest in open
education. You may have authored or reviewed an open textbook, attended an event or
conference about open education or applied for an Open Education Grant at BCIT in the
past.
