Over the course of the 2023-2024 academic year, instructors will be distributing the OA materials in their courses taught. Many of the instructors taking part in the project see open access materials as beneficial due to their low cost, remote accessibility, up-to-date content, and the possibility they have for community partnerships. The Digital Pedagogy Project will be giving a platform to and sharing the resources created throughout the various OA initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>Taking the spirit of open access and translating it to the project, the Digital Pedagogy Project is aiming to facilitate a community of practice between the participants throughout the OA development and deployment process. Stay tuned for more information about the Open Access Materials made as a part of the project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are Open Access Materials?
