02 Jun Leading Change: Sustaining Open Culture—A Workshop for HBCU Educators and Allies
About the Workshop
This workshop introduces a structured method, guiding participants to aggregate allies, build bridges, create capabilities, develop demand, and enable ecosystems of openness. Participants will collaboratively engage with these strategies to outline institutional plans for embedding open education into their campus culture sustainably. At the conclusion of the webinar, participants will be able to:
- Explore a structured method for embedding openness institutionally.
- Identify actionable strategies for aggregating assets, building bridges, creating capabilities, developing demand, and enabling ecosystems within their contexts.
- Create an institutional action plan outline for sustainable open education as their tangible takeaway.
Participation at the live session is encouraged, but all registered attendees can also watch back live content asynchronously. Additionally, at the conclusion of the webinar, participants will gain access to a series of open learning modules built in D2L Brightspace.
