- 3. HELLOI am Jamison Miller I am a doctoral candidate in the School of Education at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, USA. My MA is in cultural geography, BA (Honors) is in urban geography, and AA in liberal arts. My first career was in museum photography. You can find me at jrmiller@wm.edu, @millerjamison, jrmiller.us

- 7. 3 PAPER DISSERTATIONTHEORY Work through the application of “space of flows” (Castells, 2000) as the context for open education and “real utopias” (Olen Wright, 2010) as its practice.
- 8. OPEN EDUCATION IN THE SPACE OF FLOWS Sociologist Manuel Castells has built a theoretical framework for our economies and society that are informational, global, and networked. He describes this as The Networked Society and identifies one of the defining attributes as the SPACE OF FLOWS, where “the material organization of social practices work through flows”. 1 Image: http://www.republica.com.uy/que-nos-dejo-el-enredo-internacional/362804/
- 9. OPEN EDUCATION AS A REAL UTOPIA Sociologist Erik Olin Wright has built a theoretical framework for a CRITICAL and EMANCIPATORY approach in social science. He proposes developing accounts of viable alternatives to dominant institutions and social structures, or “real utopias”, that are based in principles of equality, democracy, and sustainability. 2 Image: DV Ltd. / Sigtryggur Ari
- 11. 3 PAPER DISSERTATIONSTUDENT USE OF OER How are students using OER in their coursework? What is learning like with OER? How does the use compare to non- open resources? INSTRUCTOR USE OF OER How are instructors implementing OER in their instruction? How is the adoption of OER (content) influencing pedagogy (practice)?
- 12. Results across multiple studies indicate that students generally achieve the same learning outcomes when OER are utilized and simultaneously save significant amounts of money. (Hilton, 2016)
- 13. Evaluating the effects that OER have on learning is problematic for several reasons. (Farrow, de los Arcos, Pitt, & Weller, 2015)
- 14. OER 1. How are students learning with OER? What are they doing with them, how are they using them? What, if any, affordances are leveraged by the “open” qualities of the resources? 2. How are instructors teaching with OER? Is open being leveraged beyond “gratis”? How? Is “open” entering into pedagogical practices, designs, or implementations? How? PEDAGOGY IN

Editor's Notes
- For Castells
- For Olin Wright, critical social science is based on the idea that “many forms of human suffering and many deficits of human flourishing are a result of existing institutions and social structures” (2012, p. 2). The predominant forms of higher education readily fall into this category. Additionally, emancipatory social science is premised upon the idea that “transforming existing institutions and social structures
- And further that “Studies across a variety of settings indicate that both students and faculty are generally positive regarding OER.” Hilton, J. (2016). Open educational resources and college textbook choices: A review of research on efficacy and perceptions. Educational Technology Research and Development, (2011). doi:10.1007/s11423-016-9434-9
- they can be adapted and repurposed often done to improve, update, or align to a specific educational need hard to judge the efficacy, and makes longitudinal studies problematic. difficult to reliably attribute any change in performance to the openness of the resources used. Farrow, R., de los Arcos, B., Pitt, R., & Weller, M. (2015). Who are the open learners? A comparative study profiling non-formal users of open educational resources. European Journal of Open, Distance and E-Learning, 18(2), 50–74.
- Tidewater’s Z-Degree is an Associate degree in Business Administration launched in fall of 2013, was the first college degree to entirely incorporate OER and has gained much national and international attention. NOVA’s zELI (Extended Learning Institute) has built OER courses that can be taken for an Associate’s degrees in General Studies or Social Science
- In their 2013 summary of learning theories applicable to OER research, Panke & Seufert identified three main areas of theory. Sociocultural, including Distributed Cognition, Connectivism, Activity Theory, Design in Use, Cognitive Flexibility, Social Constructivism, and Communities of Practice. Cognitive information processing, including cognitive load theory, cognitive theory of multimedia learning, and self-regulation Emotions, interest and flow, including Hidi & Renninger’s model of interest development
