Student Public Interest Research Groups
--65% of students have decided against purchasing or renting a required textbook
--94% of these students believed this choice would hurt their grade
14
Financing a college education
American College Health Association (2014), finances are the second-largest stressor for students after academics—more than a third of students described finances as “traumatic” or “very difficult” to handle.
15
Financing a college education
About one in four first-year students and one in three seniors frequently did not purchase required academic materials due to their cost, and a third of students believed that financial concerns interfered with their academic performance. NSSE Annual Report 2012

Students struggle to complete degrees
17
Does K-12 need an OER movement too?
18
Hawaii DOE and Textbooks
--Hawaii DOE budgeting $7,337,004 for textbooks in the FY 2015-2016
--Budget requests include replacement costs--Materials can be out of date as textbooks are purchased for several years

Office of Curriculum, Instruction and Student Support keeps a list of recommended instructional materials; schools may adopt other materials
21
Comparison of OER Contexts
22
K-12--Review boards select
textbooks and school system purchases
--Educational outcomes meet national standards and the requirements of standardized tests
--School system can choose to reallocate money to building OER
Higher Education--Faculty select textbooks
and students purchase
--Courses are managed by faculty with educational outcomes developed by faculty
--Universities do not have textbook money to reallocate.
OER implementation in higher education
23
OER in higher education
In universities (Univ Mass Amherst, Temple, Utah State, California State, Univ Hawaii, etc) faculty create courses that use
--open educational resources adoption--library licensed materials put into a learning management system--their own created materials
24
OER at the University of Hawaii
--Leeward Community College Pacific Region Learning Summit http://blogs.leeward.hawaii.edu/prls/ OER track--Kapiolani Community College Forum on OER--UH Manoa Outreach College and UH ITSoer.hawaii.edu and UH OER Repository

Is it worth the effort?
32
--Students have access to required/needed materials on the first day of class
--Instructors can tailor the materials to their students and to their instructional needs
--See paper by Robinson et al (secondary school)
Challenges to schools and teachers
33
--Providing teacher training, time to master new instructional materials
--Requires reliable internet access
--Constant renewal of resources as open materials move behind pay walls; dynamic nature of the web

Why do you need to be involved?
39
Open Resources are not for teachers who want to lie in the sun. It’s for marathon swimmers; it’s for teachers who love the ocean of work—a lot; it’s for teachers who don’t mind the shallow, the deep, the rocks, and the closed parts of the beach; it’s for teachers who are willing to build their own damn beach and then share it with everyone else—for free.If this were not a social justice issue, I’d lie in the sun. [Rae Watanabe] 40
Recommendations
--Learn about Creative Commons licensing and practice licensing your creative works.--Form partnerships with instructional design staff
