Textbook affordability is often a topic in higher education. One solution to textbook affordability is to use Open Educational Resources (OER) instead of traditional commercial textbooks. OERs are more than just textbooks and they have other advantages, like inclusiveness, accessibility, and timeliness. After this workshop, you will be able to define OER, learn where to find them, and understand how open licenses work. You will also be introduced to open pedagogy, where students create the course content.
