OER Initiative Stages

Growing OER  support on campus requires buy-in from the faculty, administration, staff, and students. As such most initiatives are often referred to as “grassroots” because interests start with faculty doing the work by themselves and then getting additional support, often in the form of grants and instructional design support. Continued interest and work can be measured on a continuum. Like most work in higher education, open education is continually improving and has a built-in cycle of reflection and growth.
