Congratulations UN SDG Fellows & Wilson School of Design! [cid:image001.png(a)01D73791.893E5C30] Congratulations to Monica Affleck and Reynold Vaz, recipients of the 2021-22 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Open Pedagogy Fellowship<https://www.kpu.ca/open/un-sdg-fellowship>! This fellowship is designed to assist faculty with creating renewable assignments (all of which will carry a Creative Commons<https://creativecommons.org/choose/> license) to help students become agents of change in their own communities. Each fellowship team (which will include at least one faculty member from KPU and one faculty member from a partner institution will design three renewable assignments during the Summer 2021 semester. A minimum of two renewable assignments will be deployed in the classes of each fellowship team during the subsequent academic year. [cid:image002.png(a)01D73791.893E5C30] Congratulations to the Wilson School of Design on its second Zero Textbook Cost (ZTC)<https://media.kpu.ca/media/What+is+the+Zero+Textbook+Cost+%28ZTC%29+initiat…> program—the Bachelor of Interior Design<https://www.kpu.ca/calendar/2018-19/design/interiordesign/interiordesign-de…>! KPU’s ZTC programs allow students to pursue an education without spending a cent on textbooks. The IDSN program joins the Wilson School of Design’s Certificate in Foundations in Design<https://www.kpu.ca/design/find> along with five other ZTC programs. Search the KPU timetable<https://media.kpu.ca/media/Finding+Zero+Textbook+Cost+%28ZTC%29+Courses/0_o…> to find a growing list of for-credit courses without the cost of textbooks. Students who enrol in this four-year program can expect to save money! Hear what Lucie Gagne, Chair of Interior Design, has to say: “Our Interior Design Program is a highly regarded program, one that, in large part, focusses on student success. Given the global economy and issues of fundamental affordability, we have made it a priority to ensure the program remains viable and sustainable by finding cost savings strategies for our students. We are thrilled that we have been able to implement making the Interior Design Degree a Zero Textbook Costs (ZTC) program” -Lucie Gagne, Chair of the Interior Design Program Best, [logo gif] Urooj Nizami; MISt, MA (she/her) Open Education Strategist, Office of Open Education Kwantlen Polytechnic University e urooj.nizami(a)kpu.ca<mailto:urooj.nizami(a)kpu.ca> w www.kpu.ca/open<http://www.kpu.ca/open> Subscribe to the KPU Open listserv here<https://lists.bccampus.ca/mailman/listinfo/openkpu> Kwantlen Polytechnic University ► Where thought meets action This e-mail and any attachments may be confidential or legally privileged.

Available Now: Test Bank for Introduction to Consumer Behaviour | Andrea Niosi Edited by Andrea Niosi (Melville School of Business) [A person smiling in front of a sunset Description automatically generated with low confidence] Instructors, to request access to the test bank for this OER, please see: https://open.bccampus.ca/browse-our-collection/ancillary-requests/ Link to Resources: Introduction to Consumer Behaviour<https://open.bccampus.ca/browse-our-collection/find-open-textbooks/?uuid=42…> & Ancillary Resource Guide<https://opentextbc.ca/ancillaryconsumerbehaviour/> This open textbook was designed for students studying business or marketing at an undergraduate level. It draws on the fields of marketing, business, communications, media studies, psychology, sociology, and anthropology. The book invites readers to examine the internal forces that shape consumer decision making, such as perceptions, motivations, personality, and attitudes as well as the external ones, such as social and situational influences, culture, and subcultures. This text centres the lived experiences of today’s consumers, specifically, undergraduate students. The author has also made efforts to decentre whiteness and dominant culture perspectives wherever possible to ensure a broader and more accurate representation of diverse consumers. This OER contains content created by students from Kwantlen Polytechnic University and is best used alongside the Ancillary Resource Guide<https://opentextbc.ca/ancillaryconsumerbehaviour/> that contains several essays, case studies, assignments, and project outlines, and an accompanying multiple choice test bank.

Cases on Social Issues: For class discussion Edited by Deirdre Maultsaid<https://kpu.pressbooks.pub/social-issue-cases/front-matter/70/> [Graphical user interface, website Description automatically generated] Link to resource: https://kpu.pressbooks.pub/social-issue-cases/ This Open Educational Resource, “Cases on Social Issues: For Class Discussion” includes valuable cases on issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion for student use. The critical events portrayed in the cases are realistic and emotional, and feature the experiences of under-represented and marginalized people. These thoughtful, contemporary cases pose ethical dilemmas about social issues that encourage post-secondary students and instructors to have stimulating, inclusive, and compassionate discussions. Inspired by input from post-secondary students and authored by people usually under-represented in education material, this resource is designed for upper-level undergraduate or graduate students in the humanities, social sciences, business, healthcare, science, agriculture, environmental studies, law and more. Each case is supplemented with modifiable discussion prompts, notes for teaching strategy, and a short reading list. This resource is a work in progress. Contributions by: Deirdre Maultsaid (Editor), Gregory John This OER was funded by KPU | Open Education’s OER Grant Program<https://www.kpu.ca/open/grants>.
