You’ve Got This: Lessons Learned from Adopting an OER for First Year Students

Zoom

This presentation will include an overview of how the College of Coastal Georgia transformed You’ve Got This, an online OER book, into a media-rich online course. The first edition of this OER was created by a team of instructors and librarians at Nashville State Community College and revised by a team at the College of Coastal Georgia in 2022. While some content, graphics, and activities changed, the purpose of this OER remained the same: to introduce first-year students to college and the skills they need to succeed. Attend this session to hear tips for assembling a project team, managing the technical aspects of the project, customizing an existing OER, and involving administrators, key leaders, and students as pilot testers.
