Open textbook review workshops provide faculty information about open textbooks, an introduction to creative commons licensing, and information about MSU Denver students and course materials costs. After attending a workshop, faculty then have the opportunity to review an open textbook in their field and earn $200 for sharing the review through the Open Education Network’s Open Textbook Library. The idea for open textbook review workshops comes out of Dr. David Ernst’s experience working with faculty at the University of Minnesota and through the Open Education Network. MSU Denver workshops are typically led by Dr. Emily Ragan and Auraria Librarian Karen Sobel.
Semester-long OER faculty learning communities meet seven times and explore a variety to topics related to finding and implementing OER in courses. These are typically held in fall and spring semesters. Reach out to Emily Ragan mailto:[email protected]
- Additional support is available through the Center for Teaching, Learning and Design, including on accessibility and creating reading assignments that allow group annotation using hypothesis.
- Customized open textbook review workshops, FLCs, or other trainings can be customized for specific colleges, departments or even individual high-enrollment courses.
