Open Education Resources
Open educational resources (OER) means
teaching, learning, and research resources that
reside in the public domain or have been released
under an intellectual property license that permits
their free use and repurposing by others.

Barriers
Reflect on the possible barriers at
your institution in advancing OER.
• Write one barrier per sticky note
• Go for quantity
• There are no right answers
• You’ll share these at your table in 15
minutes.
Table Discussion
• Share your barriers
• Are there commonalities?
– Group them into themes
– Name each theme
• Are there outliers?
Room Share
• Themes
• Outliers
• Are there nuances we want to acknowledge?
• Are there concerns we want to acknowledge?
Barriers to Faculty Adoption
• Faculty don’t know where to find open textbooks
• Faculty don’t understand the urgency of student financial
stress, and how it can impact students academically
• Faculty aren’t aware that open textbooks are an option
• Faculty don’t know what open textbooks are
• Faculty confuse open textbooks with electronic textbooks
Barriers - Institutional
• Bookstore pushback
• Admin. financial support
• Instructional services support - faculty senate?
• Student services support - advisors in the loop?
• $$ Contract language - faculty stipends or NOTAs
• Copyright ownership - admin. open license
support in contract?

or, what the h#*^! did we get
ourselves into?
a pathway to equity
Open Educational Resources:
“OER are key not only to
solving the global
education crisis but to
unlocking sustainable
global growth in the
21st century....”
Ambassador David T. Killion, U.S.
Permanent Representative to
UNESCO, and Sir John Daniel,
President and CEO of the
Commonwealth of Learning from
2004 to 2012)
UNESCO World OER Congress in 2012
OER Impact

economic-growth/
The cost barrier kept
2.4 million
low and moderate-income college-
qualified high school graduates from
completing college in the previous
decade.
The Advisory Committee on Student Financial Assistance
http://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED529499.pdf
● Textbook prices disproportionately impact
community college students: 50% of students
report using financial aid for books at community
colleges, compared to 28% at 4 year public
schools. And, on average, community college
students use more financial aid than their peers at
4 year schools.
• 5.2 million U.S. undergraduate students spend a
total of $1.5 billion dollars of financial aid on
textbooks every semester, or $3 billion per year.
Covering the Cost:
Student PIRGs report, 02.16

63.6% Not purchase the required textbook
49.2% Take fewer courses
45.1% Not register for a specific course
33.9% Earn a poor grade
26.7% Drop a course
17.0% Fail a course

Work to be done
• Divide up the work evenly among
chapters according to expertise.
• Locate, evaluate, and repurpose
existing OER.
• Build up the ancillary primary source
documents and supporting media
• Put it all together and SHARE!

*Having this text was a
“deal breaker”
Savings as of Winter 2016
$32,667
369 students x $120
Two high school faculty
= $5,000
And growing savings…
How do we measure success?
• Significant cost savings
• A book that can be adapted up or
down based on curricular needs
• A model collaborative endeavor
• A quality resource that can be shared
across the state
Continued growth, better
pedagogy, and improved
learning…

Mapping our Curriculum
Assessment Strategies
Mapping Our Curriculum
• Identified essential concepts and time
periods
• Assessed current content valued and what
was lacking
• Connected with Common Core and College
Proficiencye
Assessment
• Pro/Cons
–Accessibility, Readability and Engaging Layout(for
instructor and student), Accuracy, and
Organization
• Learning Objectives/Proficiency Criteria
–Historical Thinking, Critical Thinking, Diversity,
and Communication
• Overall
–Availability and quality of ancillaries
Let’s Practice, OER in 4 Steps
Using your model syllabus:
1.Identify LOs (page 3-4 of your booklet)
2.Search for open textbook that you could use
in your course (page 5)
3.Need more? Check your library (page 6)
4.Evaluate! Once you found a few items use
the checklist on page 7 to consider what
you’ve found and what you may need.
What’s next?
Continuing conversations with stakeholders
• OER taskforce / council vitality
• Faculty - second wave adopters
• Faculty - builders, not adapters
• Admin - funding concerns
• Students - student body change-over
• Bookstore - fiscal impact
Sustainability
• From OER to open padagogy
• sustainable funding - Lumen model course fees?
• Professional development - OpenEd16
• Centralized repository?
