May 1, 2008 Meeting:
On Thursday, May 1, 2008, at 10 am through 3 pm, the Community College Consortium for Open Educational Resources convened a meeting of its membership on the Foothill College campus in Los Altos Hills, CA. The purposes of the meeting were to report on the results of the OER Survey and discuss next steps.
The primary goal of the Community College Consortium for Open Educational Resources is to identify, create and/or repurpose existing OER as Open Textbooks and make them available for use by community college students and faculty. We are seeking the support of faculty to identify, review, evaluate, and make available high quality, accessible and culturally relevant model Open Textbooks.
