Teach and Learn with Open Education Resources

The Utah Academic Library Consortium (UALC) and Utah Education and Telehealth Network (UETN) are co-hosting a virtual symposium March 20–25. The event will feature sessions on building OER initiatives, how-tos on PressbooksEDU, a showcase of OER projects created by Utah faculty and staff and a Q&A session where participants can chat with project creators.

Initially designed to be held during Open Education Week, this event will be held the week after to accommodate university partners who will be on break the week before.
