AtlanticOER Development Grants are intended to encourage and support educators in the Atlantic Region in the adaptation, adoption, creation, and curation of open educational resources (OER), and to increase access to course materials for students. The AtlanticOER Development Grants Program is made possible through funding from the provincial governments of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador.

Each grant is awarded to individuals, departments, groups, or institutions in the Atlantic Provinces to help achieve the following objectives:

• Support the creation or adaptation of open textbooks and ancillary materials, such as lab manuals, PowerPoint slides, quiz banks, images, and other digital study or interactive aids;
• Create a variety of OERs developed for use by educators and students in credit-bearing courses;
• Establish supportive events for the development of content for OERs, such as sprints (a collaborative in-person or virtual event to create or adapt an open textbook or ancillary resources); or
• Distribute funds to maximize direct benefit to a wide range of student learners and inquiry across a diversity of disciplines.

There are three different tiers of funding that you can apply for, depending on the scope of the project. The tiers are as follows:

• Creation of a new open textbook (up to $7,000)
• Adaptation of an already existing open textbook (up to $3,500)
• Creation of new ancillary materials (up to $1,000)

The deadline for applications is May 22, 2024.
