It's Not Just About the Money: Open Educational Resources and PracticesChristina Hendricks
This document discusses open educational resources (OER) and open educational practices (OEP). It defines OER as teaching, learning and research materials that are free to use, adapt and redistribute. The document outlines why OER are used, including reducing textbook costs for students, increasing equity and access to education, and allowing for customization of resources. It also discusses OEP, such as using and revising OER, openly sharing teaching practices, and involving students in contributing to OER and curriculum development through open pedagogy. Both OER and OEP aim to increase access, agency and public contribution to knowledge. Some risks of open practices, such as privacy and harassment, are also acknowledged.

Open Educational Practices and Open Pedagogy: What, How and Why (Langara Coll...Christina Hendricks
This document provides an overview of open educational practices (OEP) and open pedagogy. It defines OEP as the creation, use and reuse of open educational resources (OER) as well as open sharing of teaching practices. Open pedagogy focuses more specifically on teaching and learning approaches. Examples of open pedagogy presented include students creating OER like open textbooks or contributing to projects like Wikipedia. Benefits discussed include improving access and equity, giving students more agency over their learning, and connecting students to broader communities. The document encourages educators to redesign traditional assignments into more open formats.
This document discusses open educational resources (OER) in philosophy. It defines OER as educational materials that are in the public domain or available with an open license, allowing anyone to legally copy, use, adapt and share them. The document notes rising textbook costs as a key issue that OER aims to address through improving access and allowing customization. It provides examples of OER that can be used in philosophy, such as open textbooks and logic materials. Challenges of finding and implementing high-quality OER are also acknowledged.

This document summarizes a presentation on advocating for open educational resources (OER) on campus. It discusses the high costs of textbooks for students and rising tuition as problems that OER can help address. OER are defined as educational materials that can be freely used, adapted, and shared.

These slides are for an Introduction to Philosophy course at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC, Canada. They discuss a couple of Nagel's purported "bad arguments" for saying life is absurd, then his view of why human life is absurd, and how we should respond to that.
This document summarizes Albert Camus' philosophical essay "The Myth of Sisyphus". Camus uses the Greek myth of the king Sisyphus, condemned to repeatably push a boulder up a mountain only to have it roll down again, as an illustration of the absurdity and meaninglessness of human life. Camus argues that in light of life's absurdity, the only reasonable responses are to acknowledge the contradiction between human desire for meaning and purpose and the indifference of the universe, while also revolting against this absurdity through continued struggle and defiance rather than suicide or ignoring reality. He concludes that we must imagine Sisyphus as happy in his repetitive, futile task because the struggle itself is enough
