Project for Creation of Diverse Human Anatomy and Physiology Multimedia OER

Hello all, An instructor at my institution is interested to beginning a project (or collaborating on an existing one) to work with student artists and actors in order to create a range of human anatomy multimedia resources that are more representative of both anatomical diversity and the diversity of folks teaching and learning in anatomy and physiology. This would include, but isn't limited to, ensuring a diversity of skin tones and body types in anatomical drawings and videos, as well as diversifying them to include sexual and ethnic diversity. If anyone is already engaged in this type of work, or has any resources to suggest, I would love to hear from them! Thanks in advance, Sarah _____________________________________________ Sarah Adams | MISt | she/her/hers Open Education Librarian Libraries and Cultural Resources | University of Calgary sarah.adams1(a)ucalgary.ca<mailto:sarah.adams1(a)ucalgary.ca> 403-220-8360 I gratefully acknowledge that I live and work on the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta.

Hey Sarah, Great thinking to put this out on the list - I should have thought of that! The other half of the team on this project at the moment are my colleagues here are UWindsor (both in kinesiology and my office), and we would love to collaborate more broadly on this really important and exciting project.
