Celebrate campus impact, see innovative projects, and explore the future of open education. Join us for lunch—perfect for the OER Curious!
Join us for a celebratory afternoon dedicated to the future of education and the common good of our campus. The Open Table is a space where faculty innovation meets student success. We invite you to pull up a chair whether you are a long-time advocate or simply OER Curious. For those new to the concept, Open Educational Resources (OER) are high-quality teaching materials that are free for students to use. Faculty can also legally customize these resources to fit their specific needs.
To celebrate Open Education Week, we are hosting a showcase featuring three faculty perspectives on the OER journey. You will hear from two professors who have successfully launched OER in their courses. A third presenter will share their current experience while still in the working phase of creation. This is a low-pressure opportunity to see how OER can be created or adapted for your own teaching goals. Come for the lunch, stay for the inspiration, and leave with a new perspective on what is possible when knowledge is open to all.
The Open Table Luncheon registration is open to Northwestern faculty members.
