Open Education Resources (Oer), Michele Gibney

Michele Gibney

Michele Gibney, a visiting PhD student in Scholarly Communication, currently in Kosovo as part of a Fulbright award, will cover the topic of adopting, and adapting open educational resources (OER) for use in the classroom. Using OER in the classroom can increase student engagement with course material, lead to a higher retention rate, and ensure access to the reading on the first day of classes. An introduction and overview to the topic will be covered. Attendees should come away with a solid understanding of websites and tools catering to the topic which will help them in the future.
