How Can I Gain Institutional Buy-In for Using OER?
Adopting OER in the classroom has clear benefits to both faculty and students. Students save on the outrageous cost of textbooks, while teachers can customize their content to align with the learning objectives of their course. This ultimately saves time and effort-and it makes everyone a little bit happier about teaching and learning, too.
Many institutions are taking OER to the next level by institutionalizing it to help save students hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. Implementing an institution-wide project such as this might sound like a bit of a tall order, but with proper buy-in and a solid implementation team, schools can cultivate a successful all-campus roll-out.
Purchase the How Can I Gain Institutional Buy-In for Using OER? 20-Minute Mentor program, presented by Erik Christensen, PhD, who, over the span of two years, helped lead a team that championed the institutionalization of OER across his campus, resulting in saving students $425,000 in a year.
