      The Graduate Center of the City University of New York is pleased to announce a call for participants for the Summer 2024 Open Education Publishing Institute: Collaborative Knowledge and Social Justice ( https://oepi2024.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ ), funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities Institutes for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities grant program and hosted by GC Digital Initiatives and the GC Teaching and Learning Center. We hope you will assist us in circulating this Call for Participants to anyone who might be interested in applying.

      The three-week hybrid institute will take place in person June 12th-14th, 2024 at the CUNY Graduate Center in New York, and virtually via Zoom June 17th-27th, with virtual follow-ups in August and January (more details below). Participants will receive a lump-sum award of $4,200 that will cover travel, lodging, and per diem expenses for the in-person sessions and overall participation in the institute. To learn more about the institute, please visit the OEPI website.

      Centered on social justice and inclusion of diverse perspectives, the Open Education Publishing Institute (OEPI) provides an opportunity for the development of Open Educational Resource (OER) publications that harness the energy of the digital humanities and the capacity of interactive digital publishing to empower students as co-creators of knowledge. Emphasizing active learning, place-based scholarship, and an engagement with new forms of digital publication, the OEPI seeks projects that incorporate historically marginalized knowledges, with a particular focus on projects that go beyond providing free course materials to those that actively engage students as co-producers of open, public-facing resources. The OER created in this institute will include a means for students to contribute to or build out the publication. Through this work, we will support the creation of innovative OER, and also help participants think through how to model open pedagogy and inclusive learning at their own institutions.

      We encourage applications from adjunct, part-time, and full time professors and staff from a range of disciplines and institution-types. We especially seek applicants from Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Native-Serving Institutions, and community colleges, and we encourage potential applicants to get in touch with any questions they may have.

      The Open Education Publishing Institute will be supported by a faculty and staff with expertise in open digital publishing and open pedagogy. Participants will build their projects on Manifold, The CUNY Academic Commons (or similar WordPress platforms), or a combination of both platforms. Manifold is a digital publishing platform collaboratively created by the CUNY Graduate Center, the University of Minnesota Press, and Cast Iron Coding. The CUNY Academic Commons, founded in 2009, is a WordPress-based publishing and networking platform that enables users to create interactive, multimedia-rich websites and digital projects.

      The OEPI was designed in connection with Brown University Library’s “Born-Digital Scholarly Publishing” training institute, which will also be offered in Summer 2024 and which supports development of interpretive projects and digital publications that aim to diversify resources and expand audiences for DH scholarship. Applicants who are working on digital monographs should consider the Brown Institute; applicants interested in creating OER and teaching materials may be best suited for our institute.

      For more information, please see the full version of this announcement: https://oepi2024.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2024/01/26/apply-now-for-the-summer-2024-open-education-publishing-institute/
