Subject: OER13 Free Place Scheme!



Dear OER Champions and Colleagues,



Following on from the successful UKOER Programme the Higher Education Academy would like to support the continued growth of the OER and Open Practice community by encouraging UK academic and professional higher education staff who have had no engagement with OERs to find out more about this movement.



The Higher Education Academy is funding a scheme which will provide the conference fees for OER13 to HE staff who are new to OER/ Open Practice i.e. those staff involved in delivering HE who have neither been engaged in OERs nor previously funded as part of the UKOER Programme and who do not have a paper accepted for OER13.



OER13 is a conference taking place at the University of Nottingham on 26th & 27th March 2013 which will showcase Open Practice projects (http://www.oer13.org). The conference programme will consist of an engaging mix of keynote presentations, refereed papers and posters exploring the impact of OER on HE within the conference themes.



For further details or to apply for a place please visit http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/projects/detail/oer/OER13_scheme. 



Please feel free to circulate to those eligible colleagues who would be interested in attending the event.



Many thanks



Alex.
