Hi all,
CapU open education faculty fellows are working with their departments (Kinesiology, STEM, Communications, Psychology) to identify potential open educational resources for key courses in their programs.
Are the lists each of us send to BCcampus for tracking open textbooks publicly available? Has anyone used another institution's list to cross-reference what courses at their institution might use the same resources? Other institution's lists could also help convince departments that are hesitant to using OER, if another BC institution's related faculty are using OER.
Would anyone be willing to share their list? Do we think these documents have a place on the BCOEL OER Commons group (updated once a year)? Some people cite privacy issues with sharing faculty names, but those could be redacted.
Interested to hear people's thoughts and if anyone is willing to share their institution's open resources tracking documents. If people are already doing this, even better!
Cheers,
Darcye

Hi BCOEL steering committee,
I hope many of you were able to join today's event, or that you can view the recording once it is available from the BCcampus event archives<https://bccampus.ca/events/>. I for one was blown away by the student panelists in particular and left feeling so energized and hopeful!
Please join me in thanking our amazing event planning team, without whom this would not have been possible. They oversaw communications, nominated and invited panelists, secured institutional funding and BCcampus tech support, brainstormed discussion questions, and ensured everything ran smoothly before and during the event. Huge thanks to Amanda Grey, Darcye Lovsin, Donna Langille, Hope Power, Lin Brander, and Urooj Nizami.
Best Regards,
Mia Clarkson
