In this session, we will share the transformative journey of implementing the DOERS3 Equity Through OER rubric at a community college district and translating our analysis of the results into actionable change. Through a combination of storytelling and data-driven insights, we will demonstrate how our institution leveraged the rubric to assess and enhance the equity of our OER materials. Building upon this foundation, we will introduce our Equity Plus quality review program as a strategic next step toward fostering inclusivity and representation within our OER ecosystem. Join us as we explore the power of collaborative action in advancing equity through open education and discuss practical strategies for implementing similar initiatives in diverse educational contexts.
