Ethics, Openness and the Future of LearningRobert Farrow
Â
What difference does openness make to ethics' This session will examine this question both from the perspective of research into OER and the use of open resources in teaching and learning. An outline of the nature and importance of ethics will be provided before the basic principles of research ethics are outlined through an examination of the guidance provided by National Institutes of Health (2014) and BERA (2014). The importance and foundation of institutional approval for OER research activities is reiterated with a focus on underlying principles that can also be applied openly.
I argue that with a shift to informal (or extra-institutional) learning there is a risk that we lose some clarity over the nature and extent of our moral obligations when working outside institutional frameworks â what Weller (2013) has termed "guerilla" research activity. Innovations of this kind could be free of licensing permissions; they could be funded by kickstarter or public-private enterprise; or they could reflect individuals working as data journalists. But we might also speak of "guerilla" education for innovations taking place on the fringes of institutional activity â from using social media to going full-blown "edupunk" (Groom, 2008). These innovations which employ variants of opennesss can also bring out morally complex situations.
I show how the principles underlying traditional research ethics can be applied openly while noting that, whether working within or outside institutions, there is almost no existing guidance that explains the ethical implications of working openly. Similar issues are raised with MOOC, which operate outside institutions but while drawing on institutional reputations and values. With this in mind I sketch out scenarios we are likely to encounter in the future of education:
- Issues around privacy, security and big data
- Intellectual property conflicts
- Ensuring fair treatment of class students and equivalent online students
- Meeting obligations to content creators
- The ethical status of MOOCs and their obligations to their students
- Moral dimensions of open licenses
- The ethics of learning analytics and the data it produces
I argue that, while models for ethical analysis have been proposed (e.g. Farrow, 2011) more attention should be paid to the ethics of being open. I conclude with an examination of the idea that we have a moral obligation to be open, contrasting prudential and ethical approaches to open education. At the heart of the OER movement, I argue, is a strong moral impulse that should be recognized and celebrated rather than considered the preserve of the ideologue: openness is not reducible to lowering the marginal cost of educational resources. Openness is a diverse spectrum and to leverage its true potential we need to reflect deeply on how technology has the power to challenge the normative assumptions we make about education.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
Â
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasnât one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

use of the internet by clientsâŚ.
And that the researcher collaborates:

1. Collaboration
2. Equality
3. Dissemination
4. Independence
*Wahab and Sloan: Ethical dilemmas in sex work research. Research for Sex Work (7) 2004
29. 1. Collaboration
Researchers must collaborate with
the sex workers they seek to
study
This collaboration must include all
aspects of research
design, theoretical
framework, methods, and
dissemination
As cited In: Wahab and Sloan: Ethical dilemmas in sex work research. Research for Sex Work (7) 2004
30. 2. Equality
Researchers must be cognisant of issues of
social, political, economic and personal power and
seek to equalise power relationships with the sex
workers they study
This can be accomplished by acknowledging that
sex workers are the experts on their own lives;
researchers are the experts on research
methods, and we all stand to learn from one
another
As cited In: Wahab and Sloan: Ethical dilemmas in sex work research. Research for Sex Work (7) 2004
31. 3. Dissemination
Researchers must bring the results back
to the sex workers they study to ensure
that the researchersâ interpretation of
the data is accurate
As cited In: Wahab and Sloan: Ethical dilemmas in sex work research. Research for Sex Work (7) 2004
32. 4. Independence
Sex workers and sex work organisations are
encouraged to hire their own researchers to
conduct research of relevance to sex
workers.
Or, sex workers and sex work organisations
are encouraged to obtain training or
consultation that would enable them to
conduct their own research.
As cited In: Wahab and Sloan: Ethical dilemmas in sex work research. Research for Sex Work (7) 2004
33. Collaboration requires trust
⢠Work with community based organizations
â Learn their needs
â Demonstrate your own commitment
â Be willing to commit significant time and
effort
â (NOTE: This is not simply about entrĂŠe)
34. Collaboration requires trust
⢠Read sex worker blogs and comment
where appropriate.
â By listening you learn the language and the
issues
â By commenting
⢠reveal your perspective and your willingness to
learn
⢠reveal what you have to offer
