The document provides an overview of the goals and process of a dScribe workshop. The workshop aims to introduce participants to open educational resources (OER) and the dScribe process for creating and publishing OER. The dScribe process involves organizing course materials, selecting an open license, assessing copyright status of content, editing materials, auditing for quality, and publishing the OER. The document outlines each step in the dScribe workflow and provides examples to illustrate concepts like recommending actions for third-party content.

4. What is OER? See Greg’s “The Road to Open Educational Resources” talk ( ODP , PPT ).

5. What is dScribe? dScribe, which stands for "digital and distributed scribes," builds on the idea that by distributing tasks across a variety of interested people and using digital tools and resources we can potentially lower the cost, time, and overall effort required to create OER. The dScribe model supports a participatory approach to teaching and learning where students are not simply seen as passive recipients of knowledge, faculty as the purveyors of it, and staff as intermediaries between the parties. Instead, dScribe supports a pedagogical approach that leverages the talents and expertise of a variety of individuals to engage in new and innovative forms of collaboration and resource creation.

15. 2. Training

16. Want to know more about copyright? Ask our resident copyright specialists.

17. 2. Training Bryce Pilz, SI 519/PubPol 688 Lecture, Fall 2008, Week 7 Check out our open course on intellectual property Copyright Patent Trademark Protects expression not ideas Protects ideas that have been reduced to practice Protects goodwill associated with mark Life of author + 70 years 20 years from filing 10 year increments Fair Use No Fair Use No Research Exemption Fair use Works for hire Employee inventor owns Owned by person that uses in commerce Protects against copying Innocent infringement not a defense Protects against confusion and dilution Protection is automatic (registration is relatively simple) Extensive examination process before any rights granted Automatic for distinctive marks (might need sec. meaning) (some examination) Originality (low bars) Novelty and Nonobvious (high bars) Distinctiveness

18. 2. Training We’re going to cover a lot in the workshop. If you need a refresher later, use our wiki: open.umich.edu/wiki

19. 3. Organize Materials During this step, the dScribe gathers all of the materials from a course/module intended for OER publication. This material may be transferred through a learning management system or removable media such as a USB drive. The material should be its native, editable format (e.g. .doc, .ppt rather than .pdf) so that the dScribe may edit it as needed.

20. 4. License Your Materials The most important step in creating open content is letting others know how you want them to use it. The easiest way to do this is to select a Creative Commons license for the material you’ve created. All co-authors should select a license, preferably the same one.

21. 5. Assess and Clear 6. Edit Materials If you’re not using OERca, it saves time if you do steps 5 & 6 together. It helps to have two windows open on your computer – one with the learning material and another with the tool you’re using to record step 5. If you use OERca, it automatically does *part* of the editing process for you with Power Point files.

23. 5. Assess and Clear

24. 5. Assess and Clear Learning materials include lecture slides and other multimedia presentations, posters, handouts, readings, quizzes, class notes, and a host of other associated educational material used for instruction and learning. A content object refers to individual media items like photos, illustrations, recordings, text, equations, screenshots, and other such media that appear within learning materials. Every content object has corresponding context , i.e. a single page or slide in a learning material, may contain one or more ‘content objects’ and surrounding text. Within OERca, this is called a ‘context image.’

48. 7. Audit Materials 8. Publish Materials Once the OER is edited, the dScribe hands it over to the Open.Michigan team who reviews it for correct recommended actions and proper licensing and citation. Then the team contacts the content creator for the final review of their materials. Once the creator approves of the finished product, the team publishes and distributes the resource(s).
