California Signs Bill to Support Open Educational Resources

California community colleges will now be required to publish open educational resources:

  • AB 2261 authorizes the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges “to establish a pilot program to provide faculty and staff from community college districts around the state with the information, methods, and instructional materials to establish open education resources centers.”

This is truly a remarkable development. I applaud the Board of Governors for being forward-thinking, generous, and deliberate in serving the global educational community. What a wonderful gift!
