advocating for OER policy

State Policy Initiatives

• Grants for campus pilot programs for the creation, use, improvement of OER

• Sponsored by Sen. Durbin, Rep. Hinojosa

• Scheduled for reintroduction

• Call for White House to adopt policy to make federally funded educational resources openly licensed

• 100 orgs including NAGPS!• Builds on existing open

policies

• Ask: Co-sponsor Affordable College Textbook Act when introduced• Ask: Support OER in Higher

Education Act Reauthorization• Ask: Make sure that federally

funded resources are openly licensed

• Textbook costs/limitations are a real problem (your personal story)

• The market is broken and not working for students

• Time to harness technology to reduce costs and make materials better

• Open Educational Resources• Free to read online• Flexible to adapt and share• Students learn as well or better

• Affordable College Textbook Act would create a federally funded grant program to support OER pilot programs• Accelerates adoption and creation of

OER• Reduces cost of education• Creates opportunities to improve

teaching
