Open Education Resources (OERs) provide opportunities for institutions and students to save significant amounts of money. Beyond the money, OERs provide teachers the opportunity to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion. This webinar provides leaders with a framework on how to establish OERs at an institutional level. It provides methods for planning, designing, implementing, and evaluating the OER strategy. This webinar also documents successes and shares lessons learned.
This webinar introduces best practices for integrating guided emotional management tools into curriculum, classroom, and program development to assist students with time management as they transition into the higher education setting.

Over the past few years, faculty and students have been through trauma together. Some of us may have experienced several traumatic experiences during the most stressful time of our lives. Some, like me, may have used all their protective factors and resilience stores and finally hit rock bottom, completely exhausted and cynical. This is burnout. When burnout occurs, our stress in the workplace or classroom feels unmanageable. Once at this broken level, we are prone to experiencing a moral injury. This webinar shares essential practices for climbing back up the spiral and finding joy again.
Deaf students face many challenges in achievement and advancement of their postsecondary goals. The National Deaf Center identified negative attitudes and biases as some of biggest barriers that directly affect deaf students. It is also important to note that deaf students with multiple identities, such as race, ethnicity, and additional disabilities may experience additional barriers, especially biases and attitudes. These attitudes and biases are pervasive across the education system and marginalize the experiences of deaf students.
This webinar introduces how biases, attitudes, and social constructs impact educational attainment for deaf students. The webinar allows participants to examine how attitudes and biases result in barriers for deaf students, how preconceived expectations about deaf people’s identities and experiences can limit their education, and how we can take action to create impacts as individuals and as educators.
Students come where they are welcome and stay where they feel cared about. Caring Campus is based on decades of research documenting that students who feel cared for and connected to their college are more likely to achieve their educational goals. In over 70 colleges around the country, learn how professional staff are committing to easy, low-cost behaviors that bring the human component to student interactions to improve student success and increase job satisfaction.
