Project Abstract:

This proposed project will build off our innovative efforts with prior IITG and SUNY OER grants and merge them into a new “Open Home” ecosystem using open-source tools and materials for programs in the Humanities, Arts, and Education. These Open Home spaces are designed to support a sense of community across the arc of a whole academic program and support open pedagogy practice by engaging students in co-creating valued content for the community. The five sites will be built using open source tools to serve as scalable templates for academic programs in other divisions across Empire and other interested schools.
