Open UBC

Posted on October 22nd, 2014

On October 28-29, 2014, UBC will host two days of events showcasing areas of open scholarship, education, and research by UBC’s researchers, faculty, students, and staff, as well as guests from the global community. This year’s topics include the future of scholarly publishing, flexible learning, student innovation in the open, MOOCs, and more. A complete list of sessions and speakers can be found here. Open UBC is held in conjunction both with the International Open Access Week, which encourages the academic community to come together to share and learn about open scholarship initiatives, and with Celebrate Learning Week, which celebrates teaching and learning opportunities at UBC. All Open UBC sessions will be held in the Lillooet Room (301), of the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre, and are free and open to the public.
