Inaugural UCT Open Textbook Award - University of Capetown

The inaugural UCT Open Textbook Award aims to incentivise innovation in teaching and learning, recognise the efforts of open textbook authors and promote the creation and reuse of open educational resources. I write to invite nominations for this award. Open textbooks are digital, free to use and openly licensed teaching materials. They can be broadly defined as digital collections of course-related teaching and learning content published under an open license on platforms and in formats that provide affordances for the legal integration of multimedia and the modification of various content components, as well as printing and redistribution.
