SUMMARY:How Do Course Materials Impact Student Belonging? Insights from User Experience Research (CCCOER Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Explore how course materials – especially OER – shape students’ sense of belonging through insights from a user-experience-informed research study with undergraduate learners. This CCCOER webinar highlights key questions faculty authors should ask themselves about course reading language\, organization\, and purpose\, in order to further student belonging. \nAttendees will take away practical strategies for editing OER with student needs in mind\, along with research approaches that can be adapted across higher education settings\, including community colleges. This session offers a concrete example of how thoughtful inquiry can guide the creation of more inclusive\, engaging\, and student-centered course materials. \nPresenters:\n\nSarah Hare\, MLIS\, Open Educational Resources Librarian\, University of California\, Santa Cruz\nAlexandra Marcaccio\, MA\, MLIS\, Atlantic OERLead\, The Council of Atlantic Academic Libraries/Conseil des bibliothèques postsecondaires de l’Atlantique (CAAL-CBPA)\n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information on how to join us on April 15. This meeting will be recorded and the recording will be sent out to all registrants as well as posted on the event web site.. \nThis webinar is produced in collaboration with CCCOER’s Research and Impact Committee.
