IDEAA Presentation and OER Resource Review

At the Curriculum Committee, we are dedicated to advancing the use of Open Educational Resources (OER) to support equitable and accessible education. Here are some key goals we are focusing on:
  • Evaluation: Encouraging discipline experts to assess whether available OER materials align with course requirements and academic standards.
  • Integration: Exploring ways to incorporate OER into course outlines to enhance accessibility and reduce costs for students.
  • Equity Training: Considering opportunities for Curriculum Committee members to engage in equity-focused training, ensuring that OER adoption supports diverse student needs.
We invite you to explore LibreTexts (https://libretexts.org/), an excellent repository of OER materials. For a curated collection specifically tailored to California Community Colleges, visit the ASCCC OERI site at https://asccc-oeri.org/california-community-colleges-open-educational-resources/.
