OER/AER are strongly encouraged and faculty are tasked with double-checking that current textbooks are not offered already through these services. ]]> 2022-03-24 15:15:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ninmer26/a39skdqlpwzvo9ee/wish/2112084825 ninmer26 https://padlet.com/ninmer26/a39skdqlpwzvo9ee/wish/2112088321 OER/AER resources are still being highly recommended and I believe this will continue or be "forced" in the future. Curriculum development has also been tied into this initiative when working on new curriculum development with Instructors. ]]> 2022-03-24 15:17:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ninmer26/a39skdqlpwzvo9ee/wish/2112088321
