SCREENING: Another Kind of Open: exploring the benefits and barriers to the creation and use of open educational resources

October 25-31 is Open Access Week! Open Access Australasia have planned a festival of thoughtful panels and topical presentations for OA week 2021. Join your colleagues from the UWA Library for a viewing of this online panel session and discussion afterwards.

You’ve heard of open access for research publications, but have you considered the role of openness in teaching and learning? In this interactive session, we’ll explore open educational resources (OERs) and their benefits, through a series of case studies and unpack some of the barriers to using, adapting and creating OERs. Whether you are new to OERs or an experienced OER specialist, join us for this interactive event and be part of the conversation on moving the OER agenda forward at a national level.

Panel: Dr Steven Chang, Dr Kate Davis, Tahnee Pearse, Fiona Salisbury, Marion Slawson, Adrian Stagg
