Good morning, all!


I am passing along an invitation to a webinar series which will bring together Open Education leaders from across the U.S. to discuss a new opportunity for national coordination efforts.


The idea is to get feedback on ideas for high-level projects that can support the wider U.S. OpenEd community, from community engagement and collaboration to shared resources and infrastructure.


Please read below and share this with members of your community.

National Coordination on Open Education: A Community Conversation Series


Open education has grown from an idea to a scholarly practice and professional field, yet faces new challenges as the marketplace and technology evolve. This spring, DOERS, SPARC, and the regional interstate higher education compacts (MHEC, NEBHE, SREB and WICHE) organized an open webinar series to discuss potential strategies to advance open education work nationally. These conversations found strong interest in greater coordination to address common needs such as funding, recognition, and advocacy. With an opportunity to secure grant funding to organize some of this work, we are holding a second conversation series to discuss potential priorities and next steps for a national coordination effort.


All who are interested in open education are invited to join these conversations. To accommodate different schedules, we will offer three options, followed by a report-out of the results.

Good afternoon, Iowa OER friends!

If you were interested in this webinar series but unable to attend the feedback sessions, please register for the report-out happening tomorrow afternoon. This webinar series was conducted to get feedback from the wider Open Education community about a potential new project to support coordination across states and organizations working on OER in the U.S.

You can sign up for the report out webinar here, or sign up for the "keep me updated" list, if you can't make it.

Report Out: National Coordination on Open Education


Webinars will begin with a brief presentation followed by a group exercise to provide written input on key questions. The last 20 minutes will be optional breakout room discussions.
