[Openkpu] New Open Textbook / Open Pedagogy Project From USask

Good afternoon everyone, I wanted to share this new resource developed at the University of Saskatchewan (see below). It is a lovely example of an open pedagogy project that involves Education students writing essays for a course that have been put together in an openly-licensed collection. This kind of project is among the type of proposals that our OER grant program is able to support: http://www.kpu.ca/open/grants And of course the platform on which it resides is Pressbooks, which is a core part of our library’s Open Publishing Suite: https://www.kpu.ca/library/OPUS Cheers, Rajiv From: Canadaoer &lt;canadaoer-bounces(a)mail.bccampus.ca&gt; on behalf of "Ross, Heather" &lt;heather.ross(a)usask.ca&gt; Date: Monday, March 25, 2019 at 2:01 PM To: Canada OER &lt;canadaoer(a)mail.bccampus.ca&gt;ca>, CCCOER Advisory &lt;cccoer-advisory(a)googlegroups.com&gt; Subject: [Canadaoer] New Open Textbook / Open Pedaogy Project From USask Good afternoon.
