The Power of Open:
Unlocking Your Research and Course Materials for Maximum Impact
In higher education, there are two open movements gaining momentum toward potential tipping points: 1) open access to scholarship and research and 2) open education.
Why open?
Because we currently have 20th century policies and practices for 21st century information.
Because open benefits us as faculty, benefits our students, and benefits humanity.
Because open is about equitable access and social justice.
And because open access and open educational resources can be transformative for our research and praxis.
Join us and discover the power of open.
