Open Educational Resource Grant
Saskatchewan Polytechnic provides grants for the purpose of the adoption, adaptation or development of Open Educational Resources (OERs), with the aim of replacing existing textbooks or other types of educational resources that can be prohibitively expensive. Ideally, the completed OERs will be useable not just at Saskatchewan Polytechnic, but other post-secondary institutions.
