[Canadaoer] uOttawa Open and Affordable Learning Materials Working Group Report now available!

Apologies for cross-posting. The University of Ottawa Open and Affordable Learning Materials Working Group, sponsored by the University Librarian and Vice-Provost, Knowledge Systems, the Vice-Provost of Academic Affairs, and the Associate Vice-President of Student Affairs, is pleased to share its report and recommendations. Created in late 2019, the working group had the mandate to 1) develop awareness and promote the use of affordable course content; 2) explore and recommend strategies to establish an environment at uOttawa in which the creation and adoption of OER is encouraged and rewarded; and 3) coordinate efforts among key campus stakeholders who lead and support open education initiatives on campus. The report concludes twelve months of work and builds on existing open access and e-learning initiatives. It presents four categories of recommendations to guide open education and textbook affordability activities at uOttawa for the next five years.
