Virginia Union University is thrilled to partner with Tennessee State University and MERLOT. MERLOT is a free and open online community and collection of teaching and learning resources designed primarily for faculty, staff, and students of higher education. MERLOT's open educational services enable teachers and learners from around the world to freely share their instructional resources and pedagogy. MERLOT's library (www.merlot.org) provides a collection of peer-reviewed online learning materials, including over 7,000 free and open etextbooks, catalogued by registered MERLOT members. MERLOT also provides a wide range of faculty development and student support services.
VUUEE4Ed in partnership with MERLOT will assist faculty in developing educational multimedia resources that are highly engaging, diverse, inclusive, and culturally relevant as well as responsive. Faculty will be creating eportfolios that will be showcased.
