This presentation will cover the presenters' experiences designing with OER from the shaky beginning to the solid foundation where they find themselves today. Exemplary Course Program winners Adam Authier and Jason Kane will highlight some of the struggles and early roadblocks they encountered and then detail how they overcame them to eventually design multiple courses that fully utilize OER, even designing, licensing, and publishing their own!They will walk you through some of the courses they designed with OER including two ECP courses, cover some of their tactics for improving faculty buy-in on OER as well as some current data on how OER has impacted the student experience at Schoolcraft College. Presenters will share insights that demonstrate the benefits of using OER in higher education as well as provide tips for making the design experience successful.
