2021 AZ Regional Open Educational Resources Conference  Showcase. Build. Connect.  Keynote January 29, 2021   10:00 am - 11:30 am (MST) Open Education: Do Better  Open education has been hailed as a framework to address high-cost course materials, as there is an increase in the adoption of open educational materials. However, conversations about inclusive teaching and anti-racism pedagogical practices need to be at the center of open practices. How do we make sure that scholars and sources from marginalized communities are better represented? How does open education help decolonize school curriculum?   This keynote seeks to address the urgency of adopting social justice practices in open education and strategies on how to do this. Jasmine Roberts, Ohio State University  Jasmine Roberts is a lecturer in the School of Communication at the Ohio State University, where she teaches in the areas of public relations writing, digital activism and campaign strategy. Roberts’ advocacy work centers on the experiences of people of color, women and queer communities.     Along with her communication expertise, Roberts is also a renowned open education leader. She has delivered numerous keynote presentations across the country on the topics of inclusion in open education. She is the author of the highly-rated, openly-licensed book "Writing for Strategic Communication Industries".   In her spare time, she loves to connect with her green babies (52 plants total), fur babies (2 dogs), and loving fiancé.  Learn More and Register Now!  Who: Advocates, practitioners, and anyone else interested in open education. The event is open to the public. What: A virtual experience inviting participants to showcase projects or ideas, learn from the community, build effective resources, and connect to an ongoing community of practice through the OERizona Network. When: January 29th is the kickoff date and the conference will continue each Friday in February and ending on the first Friday in March (1/29/21 - 3/5/21). Showcase a project, resource, innovation or idea.  Build skills, knowledge and abilities through interactive workshops and keynote sessions.  Connect and build community through conversations. Open Educational Resources (OER) and the pedagogical practices permitted by their use continue to grow in potential to improve the educational experiences of our students, from drastically reducing the cost burden associated with course materials to directly involving students in the generation of knowledge. As educators and administrators across Arizona demonstrate increasing interest in the global open education community, the opportunity to forge meaningful cross-institutional connections related to open education has emerged.
