“Hearing success stories from the trenches showed be real failures and their successful rebounds in action.  Success is built on the courage to fail.”

At the OpenEd23 Conference last month, network leaders, Gina Loveless, Yvette McMahon-Arnold, Rebecca Henderson, and Amee Evans Godwin, presented a retrospective of the year’s webinar series outlined below:

Watch the session and view the slides that contain dozens of resources to support OER practice and policy including:

  • The gift of cross-state peer mentoring
  • District planning and OER implementation
  • Adapting resources to address accessibility and inclusivity
  • Remediating bias by localizing materials
  • Creating and using climate science resources
  • Impacts of OER professional learning for teachers
  • Policy actions that integrate OER into federal funded Digital Equity plans at the state level.
  • Connecting adult education supports and OER

Looking ahead to 2024, the network’s goal is to advance OER through more diverse awareness and increased participation as an important strategy.
