Greetings Science Educators!
I hope that each of you found some time to relax and rejuvenate during Spring Break and that some of you might be interested in an exciting opportunity to partner with the Oklahoma State Department of Education to curate Open Education Resources for Science.
If you attended one of the Science Standards Regional Workshops this year, you may recall me presenting a project that the Utah State Department of Education developed in conjunction with Utah science educators http://www.schools.utah.gov/CURR/science/OER.aspx . After receiving numerous requests from educators in our state to develop a similar resource for Oklahoma, we are moving forward with the Open Education Resource Project. In order to develop similar resources, we need your help!
We are seeking volunteers willing to serve as curators for the project.. Details regarding the project timeline and curator expectations are provided in the attached application. If you are interested in participating in this exciting project complete the short application and return to me by March 31st. Those selected for the project will be notified by April 2nd of their selection and the first of three working meetings will be held on April 11th in the Oklahoma City area. Travel reimbursement and lunch will be provided to participants at each of the three working meetings.
If you have additional questions regarding the application or project, please feel free to contact me at 405-522-3524 or Tiffany.Neill@sde.ok.gov..
Thank you in advance for your willingness to apply and serve on this ground breaking project!
