An interesting read and conclusions related to OER.... Cheers, Rosario From: Canadaoer <canadaoer-bounces(a)lists.bccampus.ca> On Behalf Of Jessica Norman Sent: May 19, 2022 11:01 AM Hi All, Just wanted to share this report that includes research related to OER: The Growth of Online Learning and Digital Learning Resources in Canadian Post-Secondary Education<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdlra-acrfl.ca%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2022%2F04%2F2021_special-topics_en.pdf&data=05%7C01%7Crosario_passos%40bcit.ca%7C730700d26e3b48cf2a4108da39c1818c%7C8322cefd0a4c4e2cbde5b17933e7b00f%7C0%7C0%7C637885801281438619%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C2000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=pPs%2Febh9vP604KFgUARLFdsfP6b1VwToMd3azUomTjo%3D&reserved=0> (2021) released by the Canadian Digital Learning Research Association. In a presentation, the author did emphasis that these were self-reported results of institutional staff's perceptions of faculty and students, not questions posed directly to faculty or students. Not surprisingly, their conclusions around OER were "the findings presented in this report show a need for institutions to provide more OER awareness initiatives, as well as training and support for OER use."

We would like to acknowledge that SAIT is situated on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy. The City of Calgary encompasses a region that the Blackfoot tribes of Southern Alberta described as Moh'kinsstis, meaning 'Elbow,' in reference to its location at the confluence of the Bow and Elbow rivers. Since time immemorial, this region was a traditional gathering place for the tribes of the Blackfoot Confederacy. We are meeting/gathered on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy, which, today encompasses the Indigenous people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta: the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai, the Tsuut'ina, the Stoney Nakoda First Nations, the Northwest Métis Homeland - Region 3.
