Using ePortfolios in teacher PD to build capacity Jo Elliot and Chie Adachi

ePortfolios Australia

With the increasing focus on graduate employability within higher education, ePortfolio activities present an opportunity to work with students on reflective practice and digital fluency for lifelong learning. However, universities must invest in building teachers’ capacity to confidently embed portfolio activities through the use of technologies. In this presentation, we will describe how we designed trials of two new ePortfolio platforms to build staff capacity, by incorporating these trials into courses for teaching staff and educational designers. We will also discuss the opportunities and challenges presented by such innovation projects through the lens of staff development.

(open) licensing MOOCs

Martijn Ouwehand Msc

TU Delft is a strong supporter of Open. Therefor course contents in OpenCourseWare, iTunesU and MOOCs are shared under a Creative Commons license (CC BY NC SA). In 2014, edX provided Delft University of Technology with the opportunity to sublicense its DelftX MOOCs to regions where traditionally acces had been limited; EdRaak would translate DelftX MOOCs to increase access to the Arabic speaking region and XuetangX would do the same for the Mandarin speaking region, in adition overcoming the great Firewall of China. This opportunity also provided a challenge: How can we sublicense DelftX MOOCs (leading to revenue) if (in part) the contents are already available under an open (Creative Commons) license? In this paper and presentation we will share how Delft University of Technology tried to tackle this challenge to experiment with experiments leading to revenue generation while at the same time upholding its open policy.

Open Educational Resources - Evidence and Impact

It's easy to make a MOOC. So why are more not doing it?

Brian Mulligan

The document discusses why more universities are not creating MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), despite their low production costs, by examining findings from a survey of UK universities and perspectives on MOOC pedagogy and quality. It also outlines principles and a template for creating low-cost MOOCs based on reusing open educational resources, peer assessment, and flipping traditional classroom structures to make content available online. While feedback on their low-cost MOOC course was positive, completion rates remained low, suggesting barriers beyond financial costs prevent widespread university adoption of MOOCs.

Open license for MOOCs - Martijn Ouwehand (OE global 2015)

The Open Education Consortium

The document discusses licensing issues for TU Delft's MOOCs. It proposes that while course contents can be openly licensed, supporting the learning experience through services and teaching efforts is more difficult to license openly. It presents a model distinguishing between educational resources, services, and teaching efforts. It concludes contents can be shared openly, but licensing the learning experience is more complex, creating a paradox for reusability. The next steps are continuing the open mission while offering top MOOCs to new areas, maintaining high open standards, and combining MOOCs with open educational resources.

Fall 2013 SEMLOL Presentation -- Towards Authentic Assessment

Bill Marino

This presentation discusses authentic assessment in online tutorials. It begins by asking what should be assessed and how. Rather than traditional assessments, it advocates for authentic assessments that require students to construct responses, such as simulations, case studies, reflections, and collaborative activities. Examples are given, such as a concept mapping exercise or troubleshooting assignment. The presentation argues this shifts assessment from an add-on to being integrated into the instructional content. It maintains authentic assessments can still capture relevant learning data and are not dependent on specific tools.
