About this Event

Join members of the Open and Affordable Teaching Materials Initiative for an informal learning session about Open and Affordable Teaching Materials grants. These one-time incentive grants, offered by the UD Library, Museums and Press, provide support for faculty who want to increase the affordability of their course materials.

During this information session, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions about the grant program and get useful tips on how to submit a successful proposal.

Current faculty participants in the grant program will also be on hand to share information and insights about their own affordability projects, including:

• Professor Gulnara Abduvalieva from the Associate in Arts Program, who will discuss transitioning her sections of MATH 115 from an expensive online option to self-authored materials and problem sets.
   
• Professor Peter Nelson from the Department of Linguistics and Cognitive Science, who will discuss transitioning CGSC170 to a combination of e-book chapters from the Library’s subscriptions and articles from the UD databases.
   
• Professor Nadya Pincus from the Department of Linguistics and Cognitive Science, who will discuss transitioning LING101 to an open textbook, supplemented by Library materials.

This hybrid event is open to those who teach at UD.

Registration is required. Once registered, you will receive an email with details on how to join the event via Zoom.  You may choose to join us in person or via Zoom. The event will not be recorded.
