by Stephanie L. Quail

Bilingual message // Message bilingue In January 2020, the CARL Open Education Working Group (OEWG)<https://www.carl-abrc.ca/advancing-research/scholarly-communication/open-ed…> held a two-day in-person Open Education Leadership Essentials training event<https://www.carl-abrc.ca/mini-site-page/oele2020/>. This event brought together academic librarians from across Canada and gave them the opportunity to build their open education leadership skills. The OEWG has taken the materials from this in-person event and created the Open Education Leadership Essentials Workshop-in-a-Box (OeLE WIAB). These materials will eventually be released under a Creative Commons licence. This will allow members of the open education community to use the OeLE WIAB resources to run similar in-person or online training events. On April 20, 2022 from 1:00 pm to 3:30 pm EDT, the OEWG will hold an Edit-a-thon to provide individuals outside of the CARL OEWG with the opportunity to review and help improve the draft English-language version of the OeLE WIAB. Once the draft English materials are finalized, they will be translated into French. Please join us for this interactive event. We would love to have open education enthusiasts from across Canada review the materials and help us improve the content. Important information: * Participants will be assigned a specific section to review. * You will be asked to do 2 to 3 hours of pre-work before the event starts (i.e. review your assigned section and fill out a rubric) * Participants will receive a credit in the OEWG WIAB materials as a peer reviewer and a certificate of completion Register for the event now!<https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIkce-uqD8sHNARJpQUfzFuWgr0gQTzO3…> Please fill out this Google Form to indicate what content you would prefer to review: OeLE WIAB Edit-a-thon (google form)<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdBYAoozbjEnra_2kl7UCvyKrcCrr3NVUG…>.

Project for Creation of Diverse Human Anatomy and Physiology Multimedia OER

by Sarah Adams

Hello all, An instructor at my institution is interested to beginning a project (or collaborating on an existing one) to work with student artists and actors in order to create a range of human anatomy multimedia resources that are more representative of both anatomical diversity and the diversity of folks teaching and learning in anatomy and physiology. This would include, but isn't limited to, ensuring a diversity of skin tones and body types in anatomical drawings and videos, as well as diversifying them to include sexual and ethnic diversity. If anyone is already engaged in this type of work, or has any resources to suggest, I would love to hear from them! Thanks in advance, Sarah _____________________________________________ Sarah Adams | MISt | she/her/hers Open Education Librarian Libraries and Cultural Resources | University of Calgary sarah.adams1(a)ucalgary.ca<mailto:sarah.adams1@ucalgary.ca> 403-220-8360 I gratefully acknowledge that I live and work on the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta.

OER in Genetics

by Ross, Heather

Hello, One of our professors in Biology is looking for OER to use in his Genetics course. The outcomes are below. I would appreciate any suggestions. By the completion of this course, it is expected that students will be able to: 1. Describe Mendel’s first and second law of genetics and identify how they relate to cytogenetics. 2. Predict the outcome of crosses and to carry out pedigree analysis. 3. Outline the principles of recombination and to map genes on chromosomes. 4. Recognize how expression of genetic information is related to phenotype 5. Describe how alleles behave in populations and identify the processes that contribute to evolutionary change. Heather M.
