Hello everyone! I’m Sandy Garvey. I teach in the Early Childhood Education Department at Springfield Technical Community College. My project will focus on establishing Open Education Resources for a course I have taught for many years, Early Language and Literacy Development.

Hello all, Just seeing that the intro I thought I posted many weeks ago did not go through. I am Kathleen Schlenz, one of 6 authors from Salem State University OT Department working together on publishing an OER workbook that is aimed at supporting student success in developing culturally relevant professional behaviors by meeting the diverse teaching and learning needs of faculty, students, fieldwork educators, clinicians, administrators, and researchers across a wide variety of disciplines and professions. It will guide the user through reflective practice exercises aimed at fostering the professional behaviors necessary to provide culturally relevant, responsive, evidence-based, and client-centered care. I am looking forward to learning with all of you!
