lterrat's bookmarks 2017-07-27

Summary:

"An infusion of $4 million from the state into the City University of New York this year will help the city's largest community college speed up its open educational resources (OER) development.

Over the last two years, Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) has trained 75 faculty members on how to find, create and remix OER so that more of its 29,000 students from low socio-economic backgrounds can access learning material at no charge. Now, with funding from Gov. Andrew Cuomo's budget, BMCC leaders hope to train 150 more faculty within the next year."
