Congratulations to UFV Math & Stats Professors, Dr. Kseniya Garaschuk and Dr. Shaun Sun, on their successful Open Education Faculty Fellows (OEFF) program proposals. OEFF supports faculty projects that create, develop, or modify open education resources to be used in UFV courses as well as similar courses taught at other institutions.
The adjudication committee recognized that both projects will provide a benchmark of quality for future UFV Open Education Resource projects.
Dr. Garaschuk’s project has a significant reach and relevance across science disciplines which will provide benefits to a great number of students by the final project outcome.
Dr. Sun’s use of open source tools used to develop an open product that both replaces proprietary systems and compliments existing open educational resources should prove to be an impactful technical endeavour as well as benefiting students.
The OEFF program is funded by a BC Campus OER Foundations Grant and the UFV Office of the Provost and Vice-President, Academic.
This program is administered collaboratively by the UFV Library and the Teaching and Learning Centre. For more information, please contact:
