Open Educational Resources, or OER, are “teaching, learning, and research resources that are free of cost and access barriers, and which also carry legal permission for open use.” (SPARC) These can include materials ranging from Open Access journal articles to digital textbooks to educational videos on YouTube. To learn more about OER, check out the resources below, attend a CELT workshop, and/or contact Jonas Lamb in the Library or CELT staff for one-on-one guidance and support.

- The Marginal Syllabus: The Marginal Syllabus convenes and sustains conversations with educators about issues of equity in teaching, learning, and education. Through author and organizational partnerships, and by using the web annotation platform Hypothesis, the Marginal Syllabus fosters a participatory and open experiment in professional learning for educators eager to join critical conversations about equity and education.
