2018 Keynote

We’re thrilled to announce Amy Hofer, Coordinator, Statewide Open Education Library Services, as our keynote speaker for the 2018 NW/MET Conference. Amy is the OER librarian for Oregon’s 17 community colleges. You can visit the Open Oregon Educational Resources website at openoregon.org. By night she is a fiddler and square dance caller.

Amy’s keynote is Connecting the Dots: Open and Access (PowerPoint Presentation).

Open Educational Resources (OER) have a flexible copyright license that removes financial barriers to course materials. Just as important, open content has the potential to spark innovation in accessibility, pedagogy, and course design as well. Learn more about education technology’s key role in sharing OER across formats, platforms, and repositories.
