- OpenLearn has provided free learning materials to over 4 million learners globally and increased access to education.
- Through integration with formal OU modules, OpenLearn has helped boost student enrollment, progression rates, and confidence. It provides a way for learners to sample distance learning.
- Over time, OpenLearn has expanded its social learning tools and begun offering "badged open courses" that provide recognition for informal learning through digital badges. These initiatives have increased learner engagement and driven more learners to pursue formal qualifications.

Dale McCormick argues that open educational resources (OER) provide economic and engagement benefits for students and instructors. OER allows students to access course materials on the first day of class without worrying about costs, potentially improving retention. Instructors can easily edit and customize OER materials to best suit course outcomes. OER also offers opportunities to collaborate with other institutions and enhance professional development. However, McCormick notes that finding high-quality discipline-specific OER and gaining acceptance of OER may present challenges.

Please join the Community College Consortium for Open Educational Resources (CCCOER) on Tuesday, June 11, 10:00 am (PDT) for a webinar on Competency-based learning and OER. Competency-based learning is gaining traction as institutions strive to personalize learning experiences and decrease time to graduation. Students demonstrate mastery at their own pace through e-Portfolio assessments or on-demand tests and institutions often recommend free or open educational resources (OER) along with prior learning as a source for learning materials.
Hear from several higher education experts on how OER and open courses complement competency-based learning to improve student outcomes:
Dr. Ellen Marie Murphy, Executive Director of Curriculum and Learning Systems, Ivy Bridge College. Ivy Bridge College is a two-year online institution that streamlines the transfer process to four-year degrees through personalized learning programs.
Dr. Chari Leader-Kelley, Vice-President of Learning Counts at the Council for Adult & Experiential Learning (CAEL). Learning Counts specializes in the assessment of prior learning for college credit. Currently working with the Saylor foundation to embed portfolio templates into open courses to allow students to demonstrate and reflect upon their learning.
Dr. David Shulman, Vice-President of the Virtual Campus and Instructional Technology at Broward College, Florida. Broward College is offering a competency-based MOOC this summer entitled “College Foundations: Reading, Writing, and Math” to provide students with skills to begin college or to prepare for college placement exams.

Welcome to MnSCU! New Faculty OrientationLynda Milne
A conference session to introduce faculty to the purposes and roles of the statewide system, and to the resources available (both on campus and from the system) for early teaching success.
It seems that in just the last few years, the rapid explosion and proliferation of new computer and communications technologies have the potential to alter the learning and teaching experience forever.
We as educators are painfully aware of how “career” or “foundational” skills are essential in today’s ever changing global environment, and that knowledge of and experience in problem solving, critical thinking and information competencies can assure increased graduate success-- or, as one university put it, “keys to reaching your full potential”.
While most higher education institutions are today including career competencies in their FYE curriculum or core general curriculum, this webinar will discuss whether that is enough for today’s learning environment.
Are we still teaching students the same old way we were taught and expecting them to learn the same way we learned?
Maybe it’s time to rethink where and how often we teach critical thinking, problem solving and information skill sets, as well as how and when we teach them.
What would be the advantage to faculty and administration if we did this?
What would be the advantage to students and graduates?
How would it look?
What are the challenges to this approach?

Sophie McKenzie 2014 - Incorporating career portfolios as a course-wide learn...ePortfolios Australia
In the field of Information Technology the need for students to be career ready upon leaving University is more important than ever. Employers are reporting a shortage of graduates with adequate skills, arguing that students are often unprepared for the workforce. In an effort to address employability concerns tertiary curriculum is looking towards portfolios as a way of presenting a picture of students skills. This presentation will focus on the efforts of the School of IT at Deakin University in using a course wide portfolio approach to support and produce graduates that meet the requisite skill set as required by industry. Using resources provided in the Information Technology Course Hub, hosted in the Learning Management System Desire2Learn, IT students build a portfolio that provides evidence of their achievements with respect to relevant learning outcomes, and showcases their skills, achievements and career competencies. The process of building the course hub, and outcomes so far, will be presented in this session.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
