What does Open mean at SC4?

The Open Education team at St. Clair County Community College supports and advocates open on campus. In 2017, the team made a recommendation to define what open meant to us.

"Open at SC4 is the institutional willingness and ability to aid its instructors in utilizing Open Educational Resources and moving their courses in a more open direction if they wish to do so."
