Open Education Week is an annual celebration designed to raise awareness about open educational resources and practices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What are Open Educational Resources and Practices?<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Open educational resources (OER) are teaching and learning materials that are free to read and reuse. Examples of OER include videos, images, lab activities, homework assignments, and textbooks. Open educational practices \u2014 also known as open pedagogy \u2014 use OER to support learning and invite students to be active participants in the teaching and learning environment, engaging in knowledge creation and sharing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Faculty who use OER instead of a commercial textbook can help save students hundreds of dollars a semester. Faculty who use OER can revise, remix, and build upon the content created by others, customizing the material to meet the needs of their particular class. This can aid in bringing about a more culturally responsive teaching and learning experience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Open Education Week Events &amp; Activities<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To mark Open Education Week, Temple University Libraries will be offering the following events and activities:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Contest for Students<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Tell Us Your Textbook Affordability Story<\/strong>\u00a0<br><a href=\"https:\/\/forms.office.com\/r\/GcLshKJ1jc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Submit a true story<\/a> about the most money you spent on textbooks in one semester.
