Open Education Week at Fresno State (March 4th - 8th)
Every year, in March, OE Global hosts a week-long global event called Open Education Week. Its goal is to raise awareness, showcase initiatives, and celebrate the impact of open education on teaching and learning worldwide. During Open Education Week, educators organize and conduct online and local events such as workshops, webinars, discussions, debates, and other activities for the public or specific audiences, such as faculty or students. All these events are listed on OE Global’s open education week website, providing a forum for promotion, participation, and curation.
