Celebrate Open Education Week with Affordable Learning Georgia

Open Education Week, a celebration to raise awareness of free and open resources for education, is March 9-13, 2015. Affordable Learning Georgia, a University System of Georgia initiative, is celebrating this event with new exciting content and communications. Affordable Learning Georgia’s mission is to promote student success by providing affordable textbook solutions. The ALG is a one-stop service to help USG and others identify lower-cost, electronic, free, and open educational resources (OER), building on the cost-effective subscription resources provided by GALILEO and the USG libraries.

ALG will be releasing a newsletter edition daily from March 9-13. These daily newsletters will showcase new and interesting content:

  • An exciting online celebration of OER initiatives throughout the USG
  • A new animated video about Affordable Learning Georgia
  • Streaming video recordings of keynote speeches from the ALG Symposium on the Future of the Textbook
  • A new modular step-by-step guide on identifying and finding OER
  • A “Top 10” list of things to see from Open Education Week projects outside of GA
