Saw a cute dog today. But it was a service dog so I left it the fuck alone. It's that easy, folks.

Here is a fantastic article by @DeirdMaultsaid and @mkinchina on #openpedagogy and how it can support care and inclusion. It's a must-read for all who are interested in #openeducation! @KPUopen @KPU_TLCommons @BCcampus @GOGN_OER

Re-sharing as many instructors may be deep in prep for the fall semester and this framework could be helpful #OpenEducation #OpenEd #OpenEducationResources #OER #HigherEd #TextbookBroke
Due to a technical hiccup, I wasn't able to give my presentation on "A Framework for Evaluating the Adaptation or Creation of Open Textbooks" at #OTESSA23. I have recorded my presentation, and it's now available at youtu.be/sZUPgGK-IQM. @otessa_org
