Open Education Week is a great time to educate your community on the importance of open education, collaborate with community partners to showcase the interoperability of open education, and celebrate your successes in promoting open education. However, planning and marketing events can be overwhelming.
In this presentation, we show how we planned, coordinated, and collaborated to create a week-long, interactive Open Education Week that included Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s Daytona Beach, Prescott, and Worldwide campuses. We will discuss our marketing strategy, our inclusive collaboration efforts, and our holistic approach to providing access to the events. Finally, we will present what worked and what didn’t. By sharing these experiences and lessons learned, this presentation aims to inspire and inform others interested in organizing similar events, ultimately contributing to the advancement of community education and collaboration during Open Education Week.
