The Maryland Open Source Textbook (M.O.S.T.) initiative is pleased to announce the awardees of the 2022 OER Grant Programs: 2022 Faculty OER Mini-Grants and 2022 Institutional OER Grants.

The M.O.S.T. Faculty OER Mini-Grant Program is designed to strategically support faculty efforts to increase access, affordability, and achievement for students at Maryland’s 2-year and 4-year higher education institutions through the incorporation of open educational resources (OER) into teaching practice. The 2022 M.O.S.T. faculty mini-grants will provide recipients with unique opportunities to engage in communities of practice related to teaching with OER and the creation of OER in high-need areas. This year, 5 faculty grantees were selected from five 2- and 4-year Maryland public higher education institutions, with a potential impact on 1,000 students in AY 2022-2023
