OER Grants still available!
The UNT Libraries is still accepting proposals for this year’s OER Grants program on a rolling basis for projects to be completed by December 15, 2022.
These grants support UNT faculty who do one or both of the following for a course that they expect to teach at UNT in the future:
- newly adopt or adapt an openly licensed textbook or other OER materials
- adopt, adapt, or create ancillary materials to an existing open textbook or other OER
Eligibility
All full-time faculty (tenured, tenure-track, and lecturers) who would normally teach a course using a conventional textbook (that students must purchase or rent in print or electronically) are eligible to apply for a grant. However, for projects involving a course offered in multiple sections, the application must come from the course coordinator.
Task payments of $1,000 to $5,000, depending on the amount of effort expected in adopting, adapting, or creating instructional material, will be awarded following the completion of work during a negotiated timeframe between September 1, 2021, and August 15, 2022.
See the OER Grants page for more information and a link to the proposal form.
