As institutions look to scale OER, they will need to build the capacity to sustain their OER initiatives and leverage the affordances of “open” to address access, affordability, and achievement for students.
M.O.S.T. is working with 2- and 4-year higher education institutions across Maryland to support long-term, statewide scaling and sustainability of fully accessible, openly licensed course materials by providing the infrastructure institutions need to collaborate and co-create OER. In addition to consulting with M.O.S.T. staff, there are a variety of resources that can help support the scale and sustainability of your institution’s OER initiatives.
