Open Educational Resources Boot Camp - October 16

Amber Gilewski and Sophia Georgiakaki, faculty members at Tompkins Cortland Community College (TC3), will share their expertise and lead Buffalo State faculty members in a discipline-specific Open Educational Resources (OER) Boot Camp on Friday, October 16. Gilewski and Georgiakaki have developed and implemented OER courses at their college and have led OER development projects nationally.

The workshop will be broken into two sessions: The morning session will be held from 10:30 a.m. to noon in Bulger Communication Center North 2A. This session will include a brief overview of OER basics, examples, and best practices from the successful implementation at TC3, data on the success rates, and the financial impact of OERs. Lunch will be provided at the morning session.

The afternoon session will be held from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. in Butler Library 318. Attendees will break into discipline-specific groups to discuss their experiences and get expert advice on finding and incorporating OERs into their courses. They will also learn how to save time and increase student learning with OERs.

Participants can attend one or both sessions but are encouraged to attend both. Please register for either or both sessions by Wednesday, October 14, using the CyberQuad Workshop Registration System to ensure an adequate lunch order.
