UTSA faculty will share how they are creating OER for their courses: including motivations for designing and tailoring OER for improved student engagement. Academic department chairs will share how they encourage faculty to adopt and create OER. You’ll also learn about the impact of OER adoption on DFW rates as well as platforms and support available to all UTSA faculty adopting or creating OER.
