SUMMARY:RIOS Institute Brew & Banter with Dr. Allison Lester
DESCRIPTION:Brew and Banter is RIOS’ monthly virtual series where community members come together for informal conversations about current topics in STEM education. Each session offers a chance for attendees to share updates\, spark new ideas\, and learn from one another in a relaxed\, welcoming space. \nToday’s guest is Dr. Allison Lester\, AI Literacy Professor at Arizona State University\, on  “Co-Creating with AI to Enhance Critical Thinking” \nAs generative AI reshapes higher education\, many instructors are responding with tighter rules and greater surveillance. This session offers a different entry point. Drawing on classroom-based inquiry and open pedagogical practices\, it explores how co-creating with AI can strengthen critical thinking when learning environments are built on trust\, shared norms\, and student authorship. Rather than focusing on rules or detection\, the session highlights co-creating AI policy with students as a meaningful learning activity. Participants will see how shared agreements about AI use can open space for ethical reflection\, student voice\, and deeper engagement. \nThrough classroom examples\, the session illustrates how students use AI to build tools and projects\, encounter ethical challenges\, and return to collective norms around verification\, responsibility\, and judgment. Designed for higher education faculty across disciplines\, this session offers practical strategies and a clear framework for integrating AI in ways that align with existing teaching values and support thoughtful\, student-centered learning.

DESCRIPTION:Join UNM OER and the Friends of the Public Library for a free book giveaway! The Friends will bring a wide selection of books for UNM students to take home. \nAlong with free books\, you’ll also learn about the power of Open Educational Resources (OER): \n\nOpen Educational Resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that anyone can freely use\, adapt\, and share.

SUMMARY:Advocating for OER\, One Step at a Time
DESCRIPTION:Learn how higher education institutions across New Mexico are advancing open educational resources through advocacy. Panelists from Central New Mexico Community College\, Eastern New Mexico University\, Northern New Mexico College\, Santa Fe Community College\, and the University of New Mexico will discuss what OER advocacy looks like in different institutional settings\, large and small. \nThe discussion will cover short- and long-term planning\, plus\, how to create smaller\, focused activities that can yield tangible results. Attendees will leave with concrete ideas for sustaining OER awareness\, working together with faculty\, and increasing Open Educational Practices (OEP). \nPanelists \n\nElisha Allen\, Director\, Online Strategies and Academic Technologies\, UNM\nChristine Goshorn\, Executive Director\, Innovation & Instructional Support\, CNM\nJennifer Jordan\, Principal Investigator\, NMOER; OER Librarian and Assistant Professor\, UNM\nValerie Nye\, Library Director\, SFCC\nMartin Shupla\, Library Director\, NNMC\nLaura Wight\, Director of Golden Library\, ENMU

SUMMARY:Getting Started with OER
DESCRIPTION:You’ve likely heard about OER and how it can save students money. But did you also know that OER can increase student engagement and retention? The 2022 Florida Student Survey found that 53% of the 13\,000 students they surveyed did not purchase a required textbook for a course due to its cost. Because of textbook costs\, forty-three percent of students in the survey took fewer courses\, and twenty-four percent of students surveyed reported dropping out of a course (Florida Virtual Campus 2022). \nThe New Mexico Open Educational Resources Consortium\, or the NMOER Consortium\, is holding three workshops this fall to help NM educators find free\, open\, high-quality resources to use in their classes. \nThis workshop will also cover the different ways educators can integrate these resources into their courses. All New Mexico educators\, students\, staff\, and administrators are invited to learn about how to get started with OER. \nPresented by Jennifer Jordan\, Principal Investigator\, NMOER; OER Librarian and Assistant Professor\, UNM

SUMMARY:I wrote this…For You: Framing Audience(s) for Your Open Education Resources
DESCRIPTION:From the New Mexico Open Educational Resources Consortium (NMOER): \nDetermining who will read an open education resource (OER) is not a straightforward question. Sure\, there are your students\, but what are their needs? Also\, placing your OER out into circulation brings the opportunity for new audiences. Who are they? What are your obligations to these audiences as you write/revise and OER? In this presentation we will think with a little bit of rhetorical theory about audience but also talk practically about how to think about and respond to audiences. Even if you have not (yet) written an OER\, this presentation might be useful for broader conversations about (digital) instructional materials and their potential for relational responding to learners. \nPresented by Dr. Mary Rice\, Associate Professor\, Literacy and Language Arts (LLA)
