  • Scope of Content

    Any scholarly work created by individuals or collaborators affiliated with UTEP can be submitted for publication. Members of the UTEP community can also submit publications created with members not affiliated with UTEP.

    OER

    Open Educational Resources are materials that have been licensed in a way that they can be shared freely and modified to fit the course learning objectives and the needs of the students. Using OER is one route an instructor can take when selecting zero-cost course materials. Materials can be adopted as-is or can be modified to make them more pertinent and applicable. Creation is also a possibility when more apropos OER are not available. OER materials that are significantly modified and/or created by members of the UTEP community are published and housed in ScholarWorks@UTEP. To learn more about OER, please contact Tessy Torres via email at mttorres3@utep.edu.
