Events and Meetings

Cal OER will focus on OER efforts and impact, broadly defined, across the state of California and especially across the state’s three public higher education systems, the California Community Colleges, California State University, and University of California. While the emphasis of the event is OER, presentations focused on sustainable approaches to reducing or eliminating instructional material costs for students will also be considered. Individuals submitting proposals will be asked to identify which of the following tracks is most aligned with their proposal:

·  Engaging Students in OER
·  Advocating for OER
·  Sustainability
·  Exploring OER
·  Demonstrating the Impact and Efficacy of OER
·  Open Pedagogy

Please note that proposals that focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion are expected and anticipated in all tracks. 

The call for proposals will be out soon with a submission deadline of Monday, June 12, so please watch for it.

What data tools are available to measure student success?  Faculty work to develop student learning while preparing them for their individual goals be it transfer, career advancement, academic preparation, or personal enrichment.  Student equity is central to and deeply intertwined with our focus on student success, and faculty are interested in ensuring our curriculum and student supports are meeting those equity-focused goals.  Funding and statewide initiatives drive the metrics (e.g. throughput. transfer rates, etc...) that our system and many of our colleges prioritize, but often these metrics are considered in aggregate where the focus on individual students can be lost.  Join the ASCCC Data and Research Committee for a discussion of how faculty define student success and share how to lay the foundations for designing good qualitative studies to contextualize quantitative data.
