The Faculty Quick Start Guide is an outcome of a project by ISKME, supported by a grant from the Michelson 20MM Foundation, to conduct a study and develop a set of resources to accelerate OER use for distance education, especially the urgent shift to remote learning during the pandemic in 2020. The Guide, created in collaboration with a selection of OER and online education champions across California community colleges (CCC), contains:
- Models and approaches to online learning, and to emergency remote learning in the context of COVID-19;
- How and to what extent OER fits into these models, and local and state-level supports needed for its integration and sustainability;
- Design considerations for integrating OER in online learning, including pedagogical and platform considerations;
- Curatorial practices, such as using OER curation tools and aligning curated OER to learning outcomes; and,
- Starting points and tips for colleges and faculty who want to initiate OER integration into distance education.
Tailored to faculty and campus administrators both in California and beyond, the Guide has the aim is to enable system-wide shifts to meet postsecondary institutions’ long term goals for distance learning, and faculty’s emergency plans for remote learning in response to the COVID-19 and potential future crises.
The Guide is also available as a PDF for download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17AXs30dZeLOrGeNBQ-ISc_OJXIxE9xtB/view?usp=sharing.

Digital learning is the vital tool for facilitating the teaching learning process. The article gives the current scenario and SWOT analysis of the digital learning in higher education.
This Qualtrics survey serves as a question bank for use by UT Austin Open Education Fellows Program as the fellows assess student perceptions and use of OER and other free course materials. These questions have been pulled from surveys created by others and included in published studies. The surveys and research are cited in the OER Assessment Toolkit, which provides an overview of creating an OER assessment plan.
Student advocacy for open educational resources (OER) and affordable course content is essential, meaningful work that can make huge impacts on OER programs. This quick, actionable messaging for students can fit into their packed schedules. Florida Virtual Campus (FLVC) Library Services developed this Student Advocate Packet, outlining three steps students can take that day to move their campus communities toward using open and affordable course content. This packet also contains further steps students can take if they have the time.
This toolkit was created by OER student leaders in the CCC and CSU systems. The toolkit's purpose is to motivate students to get involved in OER advocacy and the Open Education movement, as well as make it known that students can make a difference in their education. Education costs can be cut to a fraction of the price with OER, which would allow for more students to be able to access knowledge and higher education. While this toolkit contains some examples and suggestions specific to California institutions, it can still be helpful for all college students. Thanks to the Michelson 20MM Foundation's financial support students were paid for their work and contributions in creating this document, as well as presenting at conferences.
Open education is a term you have probably heard, but do you know what it means? As its name suggests, it relates to two concepts – openness and education – but it means a whole lot more. What are its aims, benefits and limits? This guide offers a number of tips and avenues for action to help answer these questions and encourage you to make the most of open education. There is a strong focus on open education in the Louvain 2020 strategic plan. UCLouvain wishes to align itself with a vision of the future and the need to share resources, practices, knowledge, tools and more in order to improve access to education, including outside the confines of the University, and education itself. The open education movement is already well established at UCLouvain. Many teachers have shown an interest and have already embraced it. What about you? This guide is intended to help you navigate open education. It explains concepts such as Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), Open Educational Resources (OERs), OpenCourseWare (OCW) and Creative Commons (CC) licences.
