What About the Faculty?

“The CCF recognizes technological advances may influence how we traditionally view the educational process, and asks the legislature to proactively support open resource initiatives with funding. The CCF affirms that faculty should be sensitive to the rising costs of textbooks whenever

  • possible. However, the CCF affirms that the choice of

textbooks and any other course-related materials must be faculty-based and at the faculty member’s discretion for provision of the best course possible; the CCF requests the legislature and the SBHE affirm this statement.”

OER Survey Report

KEY FINDINGS: Opening Public Institutions, OER in ND and the Nation

Key findings from the report include:

  • NDUS faculty are more aware of open educational resources than

their counterparts nationally.

  • Similar to their peers nationally, NDUS faculty are taking the

initiative with OER adoption. NDUS faculty report similar barriers to adoption; however, they also report that they are currently using a variety of OERs for instruction (primarily videos).

  • More than half of NDUS faculty and those at national public

institutions report that they are not sufficiently aware of OER to judge its quality.

KEY FINDINGS: Opening Public Institutions, OER in ND and the Nation Cont.

Key findings from the report include:

  • The most significant barrier to wider adoption of OER remains a

faculty perception of the time and effort required to find and evaluate it.

  • Faculty are the key decision makers for OER adoption. At the

two-year Associates level, North Dakota University System faculty enjoy significantly more autonomy in the selection of course materials than their peers who teach at the associates level at public institutions nationally.

  • A majority of North Dakota University System faculty say that

they “will” or “might” use open resources in the next three years.

But…HOW can I do this in my state?

1. Listen to what people want. Tell them what’s in it for them.

  • Legislators=Doing something good for their constituents and state. Safeguarding

state funds. ROI. Reelection. Accountability.

  • Faculty=Control over the curriculum. Learning outcomes. Autonomy. Student

Learning.

  • Students=Save money. Accessibility. Technology. Learning experience.
  • Administrators=Bottom line. Human Capitol. Return on Investment. Enrollments.
  • 2. Don’t try to change anyone’s religion.
  • 3. Make a plan and stick with it.
  • 4. Repeat the message.
  • 5. Know where to get the signature.
  • 6. DON’T QUIT!
