Abstract:
The Journey to Open (First Edition) is a resource cataloging the development and implementation of Fanshawe College’s Open Educational Resource initiative. This resource charts the journey to establish an OER Design Studio to support college-focused OER design and delivery for teaching and learning. This guide contains resources on how to establish a design studio, an incubator process, a design process, a grant program, and the adoption process for OER. In addition, a team reflective practice, an OER showcase, and specific lessons for OER implementation are included. As with many OERs, this guide is a work in progress.
