The document discusses the concept of open education, highlighting its principles such as accessibility, flexibility, and the rights associated with open educational resources (OER). It outlines the '5 R's of openness' which include retain, reuse, revise, remix, and redistribute, emphasizing the collaborative nature of educational content. Additionally, it covers the lifecycle of OER and considerations for implementing effective and inclusive learning experiences.

3. Open Education
•
open accessible (no restrictions to entry);
•
open in pace (no restricted course period);
•
open in place (no need to be somewhere in person);
•
open in time (no fixed start date);
•
open in program (choice for individual courses);
•
open available (free);
•
open to reuse (repurpose, mix, edit, distribute).

4. 5R’s of Openness
•
Retain
–
the right to make, own, and control copies of the content
•
Reuse
–
the right to use the content in a wide range of ways (e.g., in a class, in a study group, on a website, in a video)
•
Revise
–
the right to adapt, adjust, modify, or alter the content itself (e.g., translate the content into another language)
•
Remix
–
the right to combine the original or revised content with other open content to create something new (e.g., incorporate the content into a mashup)
•
Redistribute
–
the right to share copies of the original content, your revisions, or your remixes with others (e.g., give a copy of the content to a friend)

26. Prepare
•
Module Specifications Sheet
–
Outline, Duration, Learning Outcomes, Assessment Criteria, Learning Units Description.
•
Context of Use
–
mainstream educational system, short professional development courses, both.
•
Identify type of Open Licensing to be used
•
Selection of the approaches to learning
–
pedagogical strategy + instructional techniques

27. Approaches to learning

28. Learning activity design
http://www.jisc.ac.uk/media/documents/publications/effectivepracticedigitalage.pdf

29. Search and Classify
•
Identify repositories to be used
–
e.g. Openlearn, Connexions, MIT, OERCommons, WikiEducator or Wikipedia etc.
•
Look for related content
–
browse metadata, check licence type, check content quality, level, format, pedagogical approach, duration etc.
•
Build a checklist of available content
–
classify according to one's requirements.
•
Identify what is missing and what needs to be added, developed from scratch and/or adapted/ repurposed/ recontextualized.

30. (re)Purpose
•
Decontextualize highly adapted learning content.
•
Rewrite material that is not contextually correct
•
Create new materials to cater for those that are missing
•
Mix materials from different sources.
•
Add context-related learning activities that meet the pedagogical approach selected.

31. Value addition
•
Add new learning/pedagogical scenarios that improve the learning experience of learners.
•
Provide multiple modalities (such as animations and multimedia) for learning to suit individual preferences of learners (such as learning/cognitive styles).
•
Provide multiple access/delivery modes to increase accessibility to learners with different constraints such as internet connection, limited bandwidth etc.

32. Publish and Deliver
•
Publish online.
•
Deliver the course to target audience.
•
Monitor the learner progress and achievements and provide tutoring/technical support.
•
Share in the different OER repositories or simply put the content available on your local website and let others know about it.

33. Review
•
Gather feedback from learners on the course.
•
Review content to improve the course for subsequent cohorts.
•
Restart the cycle if there are changing requirements and/or to keep up-to-date with ongoing developments.

34. Important!!
•
Approach to learning
•
Copyright / licenses
•
Accessibility
•
Quality control

35. Example Accessibility
•
Descriptions provide alternative, text-based representations of the information contained in tables, diagrams, images, and other objects. This information is useful for people with vision or cognitive impairments who may not be able to see or understand the object.
•
Example: This is a colour photo of a female dancer rehearsing Negro Spirituals. The studio floor is grey and the wall is made of bricks painted white. She is leaning forward on her left leg which is bent while her right leg stretches at the back with only her toes touching the floor. Her right arm is stretched forward and she is pointing with her index finger towards her front. She is looking in that direction. She is barefoot and is wearing a long black skirt and a black leotard. She has short black hair. On her head she is wearing a colourful handkerchief as a hairband. The image shows her from her right side.
