The award recognizes faculty members who demonstrate exemplary usage of open educational resources in their classrooms and are leaders in using and advocating for open course material. Examples of such use include, but are not limited to, using open textbooks, using/incorporating free educational resources/materials in courses and creating open educational materials. Three faculty members will be selected to receive a $500 award and recognition at the USG Gala, held at the end of April.
Nominations may be submitted by colleagues and students for courses taught from fall 2023 to spring 2025. The deadline to submit nominations is April 9. Awards will be announced by mid-April.
We encourage you to take this opportunity to recognize faculty who have made a meaningful impact by making learning more accessible and affordable. Submit your nominations and help us celebrate those advancing open education at UIC!
