Open Pedagogy and Social Justice Online
Open Access, Open Educational Resources, Open Pedagogy, and other forms of “open” promote equity and inclusion in the classroom and broader academy. Removing barriers to access enables more learning, more sharing of knowledge, and even greater learning in turn. Yet, “open” can serve social justice in other ways as well, when chosen and created intentionally. Join OFE and University Libraries for this session on choosing and using “open” in ways that truly address the needs of underrepresented groups.
