<p class="MsoNormal">I am offering a $350 stipend to an Oregon community college faculty member to work with me on my research project for the OER Research Fellowship.
<a href="http://openedgroup.org/fellowship">http://openedgroup.org/fellowship</a>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My research will involve a faculty member who is teaching two or more sections of the same course during Spring Term 2018. For this project, at least one section would be taught using open educational resources and at least one section
would be taught using a commercial textbook. I would look at any differences in student completion rates, grades, and enrollment during the following term between students in the two sections. I would also look at student and faculty perceptions of the OER
and commercial textbook.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please pass this along to any Oregon community college faculty who you think might be interested.
