Achieving the Dream's OER Degree College Panel
Last June, Achieving the Dream (ATD) announced the largest initiative of its kind to develop degree programs using high quality open educational resources (OER) at 38 community colleges in 13 states. The program is designed to help remove financial roadblocks that can derail students’ progress and to spur other changes in teaching and learning and course design that will increase the likelihood of degree and certificate completion.
Grantee colleges have been busy this summer and fall developing OER courses and planning the delivery of their OER Degree programs with cross-functional teams of stakeholders including faculty, librarians, administrators, and other staff.
Grant partners Lumen Learning, the Community College Consortium for Open Educational Resources (CCCOER), and SRI International are providing technical assistance, community of practice, and research support to grantees
Come and hear from a panel of four college leaders on their early successes, lesson learned, and challenges ahead in rolling out OER Degree programs to students over the next few years. Topics include fostering faculty and administrator engagement, effective professional development, creating awareness among students, measuring outcomes, and creating sustainable policies.
Panelists:
• Clea Andreadis, Vice-Provost, Bunker Hill College, MA
• Mark Johnson, North Campus Language Arts Department Chair, San Jacinto College, TX
• Cynthia Lofaso, Psychology Professor, Central Virginia Community College, VA
• Carlos Lopez, Vice-President of Academic Affairs, Santa Ana College,
Open Oregon Educational Resources: One and Three-Quarters Years (and counting!)
Having a statewide OER librarian for Oregon's community colleges was a brand-new position when I started my job in January 2015. But it was backed by years of prior OER work on various campuses and a great deal of interest from faculty, support staff, and administrators. With that groundwork established, Open Oregon Educational Resources takes a top-level view and connects OER initiatives happening at 17 separate community colleges that are not in a system.
This presentation will cover the challenges that I initially perceived and the reality of the past one and three-quarters years. With a tremendous amount of shared effort from partners all over the state, Open Oregon has created a name and online presence for Oregon community college OER efforts; encouraged adoption by sharing information, funding projects, and showcasing successes; and offered in-person and online trainings to build capacity throughout the state. There is growing interest in open degree pathways and a cohort of 35 grant projects underway.
What's working? What will I never try again? What's next? Stop by this session and find out.

Suggestions & guidelines to assist graduate students with beginning their professional philosophy statement.
Engl 825 October 28
The document discusses various topics related to second language writing including:
1) The importance of taking a process approach to writing that views it as discovery and allows students to take risks and focus on fluency over accuracy.
2) The relationship between writing and culture and how writers' backgrounds influence their writing.
3) Different theoretical approaches to second language writing such as New Rhetoric, English for Specific Purposes, and Systemic Functional Linguistics.
Literature Circles Workshop
Literature circles involve small groups of students reading and discussing the same novel. They choose their own books and lead their own discussions, applying reading and writing skills. The goal is to promote love of reading and critical thinking. Literature circles balance teacher-guided and student-led learning, as well as wide and close reading. Students take on roles like discussion director and connector to structure their conversations. After finishing a book, students respond through extension projects like three-word summaries or literary weavings.

Informal WritingInformal or low stakes” writing covers all the .docx
Informal Writing
Informal or “low stakes” writing covers all the writing that falls under the minor commitments on the grading contract. These texts are informal because we won’t be revising them as major projects, and, while we may use them as examples of successful writing techniques, they will not be assessed for the effectiveness of the writing. Instead, I want the focus of these pieces to be reflection, inquiry, and free thought. In other words, when you are writing these, don’t worry about how well you are crafting your sentences; worry about whether you are engaging thoughtfully with the tasks. I want to know what you are thinking, and I want you to focus on what you’re thinking and why. Don’t worry if you jump from one thought to another without transition or if you get sidetracked by an unexpected thought. In short, write freely.
Informal writing might include but is not limited to
· Responses to readings
· In-class writing
· Group work reports
· Quizzes
Not all informal writing will be turned in; often, we write to learn, to discover what we think and know, and it isn’t always necessary for me to read everything. I will read all reading responses and quizzes, but I may not always comment unless I want to ask some thought provoking questions, make some suggestions for how to exceed my expectations, or I want to let you know that you have exceeded my expectations.
Reading Responses
We will have some activity required in response to course readings. Most often, this will be a 1 to 2 page written response that should follow the pattern below. Sometimes, the response will be to use the ideas from the reading to complete some part of a major project.
For most responses, I will ask you to
· Summarize what you believe to be the main point of the reading (it will be helpful for you to think about why I’ve assigned the reading as you try to focus on the author’s primary purpose).
· Explain key terms/concepts about writing emphasized or employed in the reading; I will post these terms in a separate document the week before we discuss the assigned reading.
· Reflect on and respond to the main ideas of the reading. This should be the most substantial part of your response, in which I want you to reflect thoughtfully on what the reading is saying about writing, how that relates to your own experiences, and what you think or feel about those ideas. With the key terms, I will include guiding questions to help you respond, but you should feel free to follow the train of your own thoughts
To get credit for these responses, you need to convince me that you engaged with them thoughtfully. All informal writing is graded on a credit/no credit basis. If I do not feel you have completed the assignment, or that you have engaged sufficiently with the task, I will leave a comment telling you that I cannot give you credit. THAT IS NOT FINAL. You should be a self-advocate in communicating with me if you did in fact do the best you could. Writing is difficul.
Changes in Learning
The document discusses moving education from an industrial model focused on content delivery to a knowledge-based model focused on developing context and skills. It argues the context of learning is now more important than content alone. It proposes nurturing future leaders by focusing on developing students' intelligence, emotional, and spiritual quotients through tools like case studies, reflective learning, and project-based learning. The goal is to establish the educational institutions as some of the best in India by ensuring employability and placing students before specific deadlines through an approach focusing on developing critical thinking.
2.28.11 webinar
The document discusses reflective practice and its importance in learning. It provides examples of reflective practices from various institutions, including Pace University, Three Rivers Community College, Tunxis Community College, and Virginia Tech. The practices demonstrate reflection through iterative portfolios, blogging, and comprehensive final reflections that connect past experiences to present learning and future goals. Dewey's criteria of reflection as connection, systematic/disciplined, social pedagogy, and personal growth are also discussed.
Re-negotiating the borders and boundaries of composition
The document discusses the English department at Salt Lake Community College transitioning to using threshold concepts as an organizing framework for their general education writing curriculum.
Four years ago, the department began a major revamp of the writing curriculum using threshold concepts. They have found threshold concepts to be a student-centered, flexible, and durable framework for guiding curriculum development.
The department has engaged in ongoing reflection and assessment of their use of threshold concepts, including re-assessing their approach to composition curriculum and pedagogy at open access institutions. They have worked to reshape their practices using a threshold framework.
Stepping up
This document provides advice for students preparing to attend university. It recommends maintaining extracurricular interests to develop curiosity and social skills. Students should also develop strong study habits like always having a book and writing. The document advises students to form study groups to prepare for less classroom time in university and make learning more efficient and less lonely. It then provides an overview of the philosophy course, explaining that philosophy involves identifying and solving problems through critical thinking. Key philosophical questions and the applicability of philosophy skills to many careers are also discussed.

The document advises students to form study groups to prepare for less classroom time in university and make learning more efficient and less lonely. It then provides an overview of the philosophy discipline, including typical questions addressed, career applications, and advice for taking philosophy courses.
Abbreviated literacy
The document discusses the importance of literacy, specifically reading and writing, across all subject areas in the classroom. It notes that students need skills to comprehend content-area texts and that all teachers should provide reading opportunities. When reading and writing instruction are combined, it leads to deeper learning than either process alone. The document also provides strategies and frameworks to help increase student literacy, including having students actively engage with texts through discussions, questions, and connecting ideas to their own lives and experiences.
Evo research topics to r qs (judith hanks), january 2016 (1)
Dr. Judith Hanks discusses ways to narrow the focus of research from broad topics to specific research questions. She outlines two approaches: starting with a topic and title then developing questions and data collection, or beginning with data collection and allowing questions to emerge during analysis. Refining questions involves considering agency, feasibility, and what researchers truly want to understand. Classrooms provide rich research contexts if questions are carefully focused. Developing good questions involves curiosity, imagination, and flexibility to changing understandings.
the Five Ps of LD
The document discusses formulation in learning development, drawing from clinical psychology. It explains that formulation involves co-constructing a narrative with the student to understand the presenting problem, pertinent factors, their perception of the task, process, and product. This differs from clinical psychology by focusing on learning challenges rather than mental illness. The document provides suggestions for using formulation in learning development practice, including that it may not always be needed but can develop learning and underpin other activities.
ESLR Presentation
This document discusses Essential Schoolwide Learning Results (ESLRs), which outline the skills and attributes students should develop during their time at the school. The ESLRs covered are effective communication, high-level thinking, solid foundation of knowledge, positive learning attitudes and behaviors, and global and community appreciation. Each ESLR is further defined and expectations are provided. The document then discusses how ESLRs were developed and their importance for accreditation, school improvement, and developing lifelong learners. Teachers are asked to discuss barriers to fully utilizing ESLRs and generate solutions to overcome these challenges.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
