“In Exploring Homer’s Odyssey by Emma Bridges, you will get to know Homer’s ancient Greek epic poem, which tells of the soldier Odysseus’ long and fantastical journey home to his wife Penelope after the Trojan War. You’ll meet both Penelope and Odysseus, and by exploring the mythical story of their reunion you’ll learn more about what it means to be a hero in their world as well as in our own.”

Der Sommer ist zum Reisen da! Und natürlich zum Forschen. Letzte Woche sind Vivien Petras und @maria Gäde zu Gast an der @OpenUniversity gewesen. Neben fleißigem Schreiben gab es auch einen Abstecher ins Museum Bletchley Park, um sich mitten in der Hitzewelle kulturell weiterzubilden.

Sad to learn that the "iSpot" project was ended by Open University this year. It was a cleverly-designed platform for people to help each other identify nature photos, a system that understood each user's individual expertise. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISpot #openuniversity

The OU Framework for the Learning and Teaching of Critical AI Literacy Skills
I found this a really helpful approach from the Open University. Firstly, identify the elements of critical digital literacy the institution wants staff and students to cultivate:
Then offer staff a practical list of the actions associated with each of the elements, such as those listed for AI ethics in the report:
- Use key criteria to evaluate AI tools (e.g. functionality, accessibility, privacy,
security, copyright). - Engage with ethical issues related to AI, such as bias, deepfakes, copyright
infringement, data security and privacy, with a focus on AI- based creativity. - Consciously take account of ethical issues by acting in a way that promotes responsible use of AI, e.g. asking for consent before using personal data,
refraining from spreading misinformation.
I think this is how you integrate programme development and staff development. The criteria can provide ILOs which can be incorporated into programme development (i.e. what does ’embedding critical AI literacy’ into teaching actually mean?) while also providing workable objectives for staff development.

excuses, excuses. as usual the #OU is not addressing any concerns raised openly, & by claiming this is a purely academic internal discussion they avoid the political agenda behind it all. cause let's face it, there IS one bc they allow weapons manufacturers to take seats in the university decision making bodies & fund & run the whole IT campus, to fill the public funding gap quietly privatising the university.

I fucking hate that Open University have made me hate education when I used to love it - specifically when it was socially not ok to enjoy it. I fucking loved the academic side of school and college, and the teeny amount of uni I did way back.
But have they really made me hate "education"?! I think what they are doing is not by definition education...
