June Community Highlights

By the OER Project Team

Happy June to you! As you prepare to close the door on another school year, here are a few discussions from our OER Project Online Teacher Community to keep you moving towards the finish line!

But first, consider this your heads up to join us in the Community for an OER Project Exchange on June 15–17. This asynchronous discussion will discuss incorporating art as a pedagogical strategy with Dr. Shamini Dias, Director of the Preparing Future Faculty program at Claremont Graduate University.

And the winner is...?
