There are so many great presentations and so little time at the Open Education Conference so our November webinar is an opportunity to hear highlights from a variety of community college OER projects presented. Each college will share their unique story of promoting the adoption of open educational resources and the benefits and challenges for students and faculty. The Community College Consortium for OER (CCCOER) is a community of practice focused on promoting OER adoption to expand access to education while enhancing teaching practices and learning outcomes. Through members sharing successful practices and policies in online and open forums such as our monthly webinars and at conferences across the country, best practices can easily be understood and adopted by newcomers. Hear from our member colleges who have designed effective open educational practices and policies and who walk the talk by sharing them with other colleges. When: Nov 9, 10amPST/1pmEST Featured Speakers: Regina Gong, OER Project Manager and Librarian, Lansing Community College Jody Carson & Sue Tashjian, Co-chairs of the Massachusetts Community College Go-Open, Northern Essex Community College Alisa Cooper, Director of Center for Teaching and Learning, Glendale Community College, AZ
