Collaborating Across Institutions to Advance Open Education

The Open Education movement has grown dramatically in recent years. Much of this growth is the result of innovative OER programs and initiatives that span multiple institutions. Although challenging, these types of initiatives have the potential to impact the largest number of students and go far in making open the default in education. In this special Open Education Week webcast, SPARC will highlight system and state/provincial-wide OER initiatives at our member institutions. Registration is free but required. Speakers: Michelle Reed, Open Education Librarian, University of Texas at Arlington Libraries; Mark McBride, Library Senior Strategist, SUNY System Administration; Amanda Coolidge, Senior Manager, Open Education, BCcampus; Grace Atkins, Outreach and Open Education Librarian, University of Missouri Libraries;
