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:

And of course the platform on which it resides is Pressbooks, which is a core part of our
library’s Open Publishing Suite:

Cheers,
Rajiv

Good afternoon.
I’m very excited to announce our first open textbook written by students at the University
