Open Educational Resources: How to rethink the textbook from multiple perspectives

This poster will outline the value of Open Educational Resources (OER), while focusing on the strategies available for implementation in Higher Education. Strategies will emphasize approaches to take from an administrative standpoint, as well as how to approach the process of OER implementation in one's own course. In addition to considering the benefit to students, the success of OER for long-term culture change may rely upon our ability to think of the benefit it offers to instructors and instructional staff as well. This poster will highlight recommendations based on actions taken to encourage OER adoption at a range of levels within a University.
