OER... So What? What is the value proposi%on for OER?

Learning I Cost I ! ! ! !

Access I Cost I ! ! ! !

Some Metrics of Interest standard devia%ons per dollar or millions of people per dollar

GeOng Some Clarity of Thought When we confuse OER with not‐OER, we make our “sales job” very diﬃcult

A Brief Un‐Deﬁni%on of OER “You can be _______ and (c)” Digital, online, interac%ve, simula%on,  video, podcast, forma%ve assessment,  prac%ce with feedback, virtual worlds,  games, collabora%ve, project‐based,  blog‐based, wiki‐based, etc.

What Does the “Plus” Give Us? In terms of student learning (and cost)?

Speciﬁc Pedagogical Possibili%es Teacher or learner strategies / ac%vi%es  not available without OER?

At a Very High Level Aﬀordability means access,  and people with access will likely  outperform people who don’t

Con%nuous Quality Improvement Analy%cs/reﬂec%ons about quality aren’t enough;  you must have openness to engage in CQI

More Speciﬁc Examples (1) What does openness enable? (2) Why do we believe that will maGer? (3) What does it cost?

Learning or Access I Cost I ! ! ! !

Learning I Cost Empirical evidence is best, but tenable theory is better than nothing ! ! !
