Dear colleagues, I have two wonderful developments to share: First, Betty Cunnin and Michelle Nakano have just received a grant from BCcampus for OER development for the Trades. Their project will focus on the development of an open textbook for students studying a keystone subject for the Landscape Horticulturist Apprenticeship: Identify plants and plant requirements. The newly harmonized Red Seal Occupational Standard establishes skills and knowledge to identify plants and plant requirements across all four program levels, however the proposed OER will focus on Learning Competency F2 for Level 1 and Level 2. And second, Anita Sangha has just been appointed to the Provincial Business Programs Advisory Committee for Open Education at BCcampus. Kudos to Betty, Michelle, and Anita!
