Make your course materials more affordable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next year will be challenging financially for our students. Many have lost their jobs or wages and will have a difficult time making ends meet. Consider moving from a commercial textbook to open educational resources (free and openly licensed course materials). Not only can you make learning more affordable for students, but you may also improve your drop and withdrawal rates by switching. In this workshop, we will look at why \u201cgoing open\u201d is important and how it gives you more flexibility to create custom course materials. Now is the time to make your course materials more affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creative Commons licensing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are sharing or want to share the learning materials you have created, you should include a Creative Commons license. This will tell others exactly what they can and cannot do with your work. Learn about the Creative Commons, how it works, how you can share your learning materials and make sure you receive the appropriate attribution. Learn how to find and use materials already under a CC license to enhance your class or course materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open pedagogy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Open pedagogy reconceives the notion of who creates knowledge and provides a pathway to empower students as creators. Shifting student work from \u201cdisposable\u201d to \u201crenewable\u201d assignments allows students to learn and create beyond a grade. In this session, you will learn about open pedagogy and explore a process for designing \u201crenewable\u201d assignments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sourcing images<\/strong>In our visual culture, digital users rely on images to inform them and help them navigate. Where do you find compelling images that will engage your students without creating copyright headaches? This session will help you find openly licensed visuals online. We\u2019ll discuss Creative Commons licenses; investigate sites such as Flickr and Pixabay; and explore how to upload, place, caption and link your images. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
