@smithnd @quill_west I saw an institution blossom into a good steward (as now defined). It took a long time and lots of patience.

[Nathan Smith @smithnd]

@nfinkbeiner might also appreciate this.

@Lashleyed @robnyland I’d be interested in finding out more as well.

I *love* @pgstacey's work on sustainability and #OER. "The larger the community and the more everyone collaborates and contributes, the greater the likelihood open resources will persist and continue to provide long-term value." Amen. https://t.co/cwEZmBs3vN

1) The textbook publishing industry has been subsidized by federal financial aid for years, so I believe quite hypocritical for the AAP to call out subsidizing #OER with $5m in grants.

[Anita R. Walz @ARWalz]

Absurd. Absurd. Why do academics write, peer review, and give away copyright of their work, then the institution buys it back?? "If you told anyone outside of the research process how it works, they'd think you're crazy." @thatpsychprof #openaccess

@OEWeek Should I be sending faculty to your https://t.co/dEtpUs2rvC page to participate in webinars during OpenEd Week? It looks like there's only old stuff there now, but assuming it will have the new ones during OpenEd Week.

.@pearson stock falls on projection that #highered revenues won’t grow due to “lower college enrolments, increased use of Open Educational Resources and attrition from growth in the secondary market” https://t.co/04XrUTGGE6 #oer

My nephew @BraedenArt piece that he painted for my hometown’s Martin Luther King Jr. Oratorical Art Contest. He’s at the public library right now showing. He’s 13. No art classes ever, other than YouTube. Read his description too.
