- 3. 3 I would like to acknowledge that the land on which we gather is in Adobigok (Place of the Alders in the Ojibwe Language). We are grateful to be meeting in this place this morning. Our venue today is uniquely situated along the Humber River watershed, which historically provided an integral connection for aboriginal peoples between the lakeshore of Ontario and the Lake Simcoe-Georgian Bay region. This area falls within the traditional territory of the Wendat, Anishnaabeg and Haudenosaunee Peoples. Acknowledgement

- 49. 49 Robin DeRosa Plymouth State University – New Hampshire The Open Anthology of Early American Literature “I launched the open textbook project over a summer, and because I teach at a public university where I had no easy access to graduate assistants or funding, I hired a bunch of undergrad students and recent alums, and paid them out of my own pocket to assist me. Turns out, most of them were willing to work for free (I didn’t let them, though what I paid was low because it was all I could spare), and turns out the whole endeavor of building the work turned out to be transformative to my own pedagogy and to the course that followed.”

Openness in education is not a new idea — but it needs renewed expression in a digital era and broader application in higher education Openness is not just a historical development — it is a social, cultural and economic phenomenon Fundamentally, education is a human right — let’s make educational resources openly accessible in all formats Take away messages
