Hey all,
For sure!
For folks who may not know, the British Columbia Federation of Students
(BCFS) picked up the #TextBookBrokeBC campaign, adapted some materials, and
created a robust suite of new materials (digital & print).
One of the things we made was a campaign guide for students' unions to have
a place to start/refer back to while running the campaign. It is a great
resource for any stage of OER work! I have attached it to this email.
There is a handful of other materials and guides (classroom talk scripts,
template presentations, suite of print materials, etc.), I would be more
than happy to share with other students' unions who are interested in
working on this. So please don't hesitate to contact me if you know of a
students' union/association that would be interested.
It is important for students to raise awareness on our end and working
together works!
Thanks
Aran

Hi Aran,
You know that whole package you put together for BCFS on textbookbrokebc?
You showed us the handouts at Festival of Learning...
Can you share those resources with our Canada OER Group?

*Subject: *[Canadaoer] Resources For Students Advocating for OER
I just had a meeting with the VP Academic of our undergraduate student
association and he’s looking for a resources for individual students to
guide them in approaching their instructors about considering OER. Does
anyone have something like talking points for individual students?
Thank you.
