UPCOMING EVENT Open Educational Resources: Finding, Using, Creating, and Sharing Them

When: Tuesday, February 5, 2019, 12 noon - 1 p.m. EST

Format Online - Zoom

Open Educational Resources (OER) are a great solution for making class material affordable (or free!) for your students. In this webinar we will discuss definitions of OER, Creative Commons licensing, and OER resources available at IU. 

One of those resources is Pressbooks, a tool that allows you or your students to write manuals, articles, books, and more for a variety of uses including sharing with others as open educational resources. It can also be used to adopt existing OER into your courses. Learn how you can integrate Pressbooks into your classroom.

This event aligns with the following IUSM Academy of Teaching Scholars program competencies: Instructional Strategies (IS), Instructional Technology (IT).
