New to open educational resources (OER)? Already using them?

Attend the first-ever academic innovation summit specific to OER!

 

Collin College has joined forces with OpenStax, the world’s leading publisher of high-quality, peer-reviewed open educational resources. Together, they are hosting a can’t-miss regional event for faculty, administrators, and textbook adoption decision makers committed to expanding OER use and awareness or to enhancing their existing OER programs through the use of accompanying technologies. Join hundreds of other faculty members for a full day of presentations from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board along with experienced faculty from North Texas institutions to bring you need-to-know information, best practices for implementation, and insights for OER and artificial intelligence (AI) in your courses.

 

While here, you’ll have the opportunity to interface with OpenStax Technology Partner exhibits showcasing affordable technologies to pair with OER textbooks. Don’t miss the chance to explore these resources in person and sign up for one-on-one demos.
