Update: The application deadline for this program has passed.
Cowles Library is excited to announce an opportunity for full-time Drake faculty interested in learning more about using open educational resources (OER) in their courses. These open resources replace costly textbooks, and are beneficial to students in your courses in so many ways. The Drake Faculty Open Education Grant Program is offering $500 stipends to participants who complete the program, which comprises a workshop, self-paced learning modules, and peer discussion.
This program will be limited to eight participants in Fall 2022, and participants must complete all required components to receive their stipend. We expect the time commitment for the program to be 10–12 hours, which includes the virtual kickoff workshop on Friday, Oct. 7, 3:30–5 p.m.
Deadline: Applications are due by Friday, Sept. 23, 2022. Individuals will be notified of the status of their application by Monday, Oct. 3, 2022. Grants will be awarded based on representation of a wide range of disciplines and the alignment of application responses to the proposed content of this program.
