Description

Carol Burnell, Nicole Rosevear, Susan Pesznecker, and Monique Babin of Clackamas Community College (CCC), along with Jaime Wood of Portland State University, are currently developing an OER for CCC's developmental reading and writing courses, WRD-090 and -098. This project grew from a desire to create a resource that would evolve and grow along with the experience of the students and educators who use it. Their OER provides practical advice for reading and writing about college-level texts (books, articles, websites, visual texts, videos, and other multimedia). It guides students to work with these texts in different ways, according to the demands of their college assignments, such as summary, analysis, evaluation, or argument. The OER will be published on Pressbooks and has been designed for college writing instructors to use, remix, and revise. Carol, Susan, and Monique will discuss the co-authoring, revision, review, and publication process to create this no-cost option for students.
