Program Description:
In this “escape room” activity, we will learn how to break out from the traditional required textbook and set your classroom free from high-priced textbooks, restrictive licenses and outdated content! Learn to use Open Educational Resources (OER) by solving a series of fun and engaging puzzles while learning the basics of OER licensing. Activities will include: searching for the latest high-quality OER content, determining the appropriate license for open use, and how to incorporate OERs into your class.
