Good morning, all
Hope you're having a great midweek!
This is just a quick update re: the current OER week preference from the wider listserv. We've had 7 responses so far, but the 'OER and student success in a time of enrolment decline' option is taking a substantial early lead!
There are tumbleweeds flying through the inspiration and ideas side of my brain right now, but with a good break I'm hopeful that something will spark between now and our next meeting! Perhaps we can all consider this topic (and potential speakers, if we go in that direction) over the next few weeks and chat more in January!
Hope you all have a terrific and restful holiday season and looking forward to seeing you all again in 2025!
Best,
Liz

Apologies for being absent lately – there’s been a lot going on. Looking forward to seeing you all next Monday!
Cheers,

Good afternoon, all
Hope you are enjoying this bright, sunshine day! It was very frosty this morning but the blue skies are such a treat!
I've attached the meeting agenda for our upcoming meeting on December 9th (our last for 2024!), and as always please share any updates, edits, or suggestions.
Also...it's only taken me about 3 months, but I have finally figured out how to share agenda as a Word file within the Teams chat itself! Celebrate the small wins!
Thanks all in advance and hope to see you next Monday!
Best,
Liz
