Collaborating with Students on OER AdvocacyBrady Yano
For many student leaders, finding ways to make a post-secondary degree more affordable is a top priority. While student leaders may have heard about the benefits of OER, many may not be aware of the tactics needed to actually transition their efforts into increased awareness and adoption. Further many librarians, teaching and learning support staff and faculty members working to advance OER on campus have not yet collaborated with students. In recognition of this, this workshop will provide attendees with an overview of grassroots tactics, highlighting the benefits of involving students in OER advocacy. Through highlighting successful collaborative OER campaigns, this session will provide attendees with the opportunity to connect, learn from one another and commit to further action that can be taken on their campuses through grassroots organizing.

This project was developed at Macquarie ICT Innovations Centre (MacICT).
MacICT is located at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. It is a collaborative agreement between the NSW Department of Education and Training (DET) and Macquarie University, which provides the opportunity for NSW DET schools access to the use of innovative technologies in teaching and learning.
MacICT’s mission statement:
to develop, implement, and evaluate innovative ways of enhancing learning through the application of dynamic and emerging information and communication technologies.
This projects investigates local ecosystems to identify factors affecting survival of organisms in an ecosystem. Once a shared environemnment is selected, our project teams will work together to collect the relevant data and begin monitoring their ecosystem as a joint collaborative community project
In response to the global pandemic, institutions everywhere swiftly pivoted to online learning in an attempt to help salvage and preserve education. During this abrupt shift to emergency remote teaching, students were neither prepared for learning remotely nor were they equipped with the kind of autonomy and agency needed for online learning. As a return to traditional classroom teaching is unforeseeable in the near future, it is crucial that we continue to improve upon our teaching and learning practices within online environments. This session will argue that we can view the current situation through a different prism: as a unique opportunity in which our students can be become agents of their learning and be enabled to take more control of their learning paths. The session will focus on the opportunities of online learning, specifically the teaching and learning approaches that can be used to engage students and to nurture their self-directed and self-determined learning skills in order to become better prepared for lifelong learning.
EMMA Summer School - Rebecca Ferguson - Learning design and learning analytic...EUmoocs
This hands-on workshop will work with learning design tools and with massive open online courses (MOOCs) on the FutureLearn platform to explore how learning design can be used to influence the choice and design of learning analytics. This workshop will be of interest to people who are involved in the design or presentation of online courses, and to those who want to find out more about learning design, learning analytics or MOOCs. Participants will find it helpful to have registered for FutureLearn and explored the platform for a short time in advance of the workshop.
This presentation was given during the EMMA Summer School, that took place in Ischia (Italy) on 4-11 July 2015.
