Overview
The Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF) is a nonprofit organization with a research and education mission. With this renewal grant, GHLF would conduct annual surveys to track the level of OER awareness and adoption among higher education teaching faculty and senior academic administrators and to identify the primary drivers and barriers to such adoption. The resulting time-series data will be published annually to help the field better understand and plan for wider adoption of OER among U.S. institutions of higher education and will also be compiled to populate the Hewlett Foundation’s field-facing OER dashboard.
