Call for Proposals: Course Materials Conversion Program - University of Arkansas

Each semester, the University of Arkansas Libraries and Global Campus offer compensation for faculty to reduce the cost of textbooks for their students by using Open Educational Resources (OER). Faculty can apply to receive $3,000-$7,500 in extra compensation to support the adoption, adaptation or creation of Open Educational Resources. Visit the OER website to learn more about the program. "The Global Campus supports the U of A's efforts to reduce costs for students," said Donald Judges, vice provost for distance education. "We believe working with U of A faculty is one of the best ways to provide high-quality OER materials for our students." https://news.uark.edu/articles/46131/call-for-proposals-course-materials-conversion-program
