JULY 4th WEBINAR: OER Funding Webinar: $3M… now what?

Hello Everyone, You and your colleagues are invited to this Thursday's 10 to 11 am webinar<https://bccampus.ca/event/oer-funding-webinar-3m-now-what/> on: OER Funding Webinar: $3M… now what? Funding of $3.26 million for OER, including more open textbooks, was announced by Melanie Mark, Minister of Advanced Education, Skills and Training at the Cascadia Open Education Summit in April 2019. BCcampus will be using this funding with the goal of meeting the needs of instructors and making it as easy and attractive as possible to use OER in classrooms — through better OER and OER-related support services and online infrastructure for a broad range of educational programs. Join BCcampus’ Associate Director of Open Education, Amanda Coolidge, as she outlines the details of the funding allocation for the $3 million and what BC can expect to see in the next 1, 2, and 3 years. Webinar details can be found here<https://bccampus.ca/event/oer-funding-webinar-3m-now-what/>.

Dear Colleagues, We recently learned that some of you were blocked from listening to yesterday's webinar. It wasn't until near the end of the session that we discovered a default participant limit had been set in our BlueJeans account. This has since been increased to 100 attendees. Fortunately, the session was recorded. Here is the link to the webinar: https://bluejeans.com/s/dW8Sj Regards, Lauri and Amanda Lauri Aesoph Manager, Open Education [https://bccampus.ca/files/2018/10/dotted-line.jpg] Cell: 250-893-0258 • Email: laesoph(a)bccampus.ca<mailto:laesoph(a)bccampus.ca> Twitter: @lauriaesoph<https://twitter.com/lauriaesoph> • Skype: lauri.aesoph • LinkedIn: lauri.aesoph<https://www.linkedin.com/in/lauri.aesoph/> BCcampus.ca<https://bccampus.ca/> • @BCcampus<https://twitter.com/BCcampus> • #BCcampus<https://twitter.com/hashtag/BCcampus?src=hash> I acknowledge that the land on which I work and live is the traditional territory of the Lkwungen-speaking people. ________________________________ From: Lauri Aesoph Sent: July 2, 2019 2:23 PM To: Key Contacts mailing list Subject: JULY 4th WEBINAR: OER Funding Webinar: $3M… now what?
