  1. #OEWeek26 #CommunitySuccess

    We love this #OEWeek event that took place this week at a book fair at Vancouver Island University, spearheaded by their Students’ Union – they showcased BCcampus' Open Collection of 300 Open Textbooks. It was even featured by the local radio station: twp.ai/NTapkA

    Here's the VIUSU event ... twp.ai/9Pb69y

  2. 🎙️ The desk of a podcaster 🙈
    Had a wonderful conversation with Dr Mais Fatayer and Dr Julian Pakay, today, all about using OER to address teaching challenges and whether there are some things open ed can do that AI can’t 🤔

    Keep an eye out for Julian’s episode of #SpeakingOfOpen coming soon to earbuds near you 🤩

    I’m off to go translate all these notes into a legible format so we can get this episode to you before the month is out 🥳

  17. Omgosh, every #OpenEducation person in Australia, read, bookmark, and share this thread! 🤩 There is already such valuable info there from Rajiv and the first few respondents — and it’ll only grow as more people find the thread and contribute their knowledge and experience to the conversation. Let’s help each other to build institutional capacity for #OpenEducationalPractice.

    Rajiv says he is “especially interested in tactics that are relatively low-effort or that are one-time projects but that pay significant dividends over time.” I.e. strategies that any institution can employ to get the ball rolling.

    So, check it out. Learn some stuff. Add some stuff. Share all of it.

  22. Your regular reminder...

    "Replacing expensive textbooks [software] with free educational resources could reduce high college costs..."

    All the same opportunities, benefits, and value of #OpenTextbooks and other #OER are all also available to #students and #education through #OpenSource software.

    As we often find out, there's disproportionate attention paid to #OpenTextbooks in #OERs and #OpenEducation generally.

    Plus... #InstructorEffect, yet again.
    What if it were the point? What if #OEPs were about improving our teaching?

  26. @TirotG Depuis des décennies se forme une pédagogie ouverte selon un tel principe. C'est d'ailleurs une part importante du mouvement pour l'Éducation ouverte et libre. Pourtant, elle est souvent laissée pour compte dans les discussions en #OpenEducation, surtout lorsque prévaut une notion de gratuité (avec les #ManuelsLibres / #OpenTextbooks et d'autres modèles #RELfr / #OER).
    Merci de partager!

  27. Part of what this podcast episode from #OpenEducationGlobal does is connecting #OpenTextbooks and #OERs to the #pedagogical side of #LXD (Learning Experience Design).
