Seems worth forwarding to any contact you may have in USA schools, especially if they've worked on freely licensed OER. Federico -------- Messaggio inoltrato -------- Oggetto: [SCHOLCOMM] Survey Request: Open Education Resource (OER) Initiatives at U.S. Post-Secondary Institutions Data: Tue, 21 Jan 2020 11:25:13 -0600 Mittente: Jon Bull Greetings colleagues! If your institution is U.S.-based and has an OER initiative, please consider completing our research survey on Open Education Resource (OER) Initiatives at U.S. Post-Secondary Institutions. Link to survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/OERs0121 This project is intended to survey project managers of various OER-related initiatives at U.S. post-secondary institutions of higher education in order to ascertain common programmatic characteristics, including implementation, organization, selection process, and assessment, as well as explore the sustainability of such initiatives. Past surveys on this topic have focused on regional adoption or other aspects of OER usage, but this survey intends to focus on how these initiatives are started, currently operate, and how they might continue to thrive or fail in the future. This survey has been reviewed and exempted by the Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) of Roger Williams University, University of the Pacific, and Valparaiso University. If you have any questions, please contact Jonathan Bull (jon.bull(a)valpo.edu). This survey should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete and will be open for responses until March 15, 2020. Thank you! Jonathan Bull, Valparaiso University Michele Gibney, University of the Pacific Lindsey Gumb, Roger Williams University
