OER training and stipend opportunity

496

Provost Bruce is funding an OER (Open Educational Resources) program to save students money on textbooks. This program continues last year’s TBR grant work, which saved students over $162,000 in Spring 2022. This OER program offers stipends to selected faculty to transition their courses from traditional textbooks to zero-cost course materials. This program will help increase equity in access to quality, zero-cost educational materials. Faculty interested in receiving OER training and a stipend must submit an application proposal by Aug. 31, 2022.
