This document discusses a study on K-12 teachers' views of how open educational resources (OER) impact students. The study found that OER can improve student performance and satisfaction by increasing access to educational materials. Teachers reported that OER allow for more student-centered learning approaches like flipped learning, where students engage with content online and class time is used for active learning. OER also enable new forms of teaching and learning like having students create their own lessons and online content. Teachers found that OER increase student engagement and motivation by allowing them to customize lessons and see their work published online.

Development of a new mindset for eLearning Pedagogy: for the Teacher and the Learner.
Abstract
Teaching, like learning, involves a personal journey. This researched narrative records the role of technology integration in one instructor’s teaching practice, and examines how literature in the field accounts for ways eLearning technologies have kept the author and her students engaged in the process of learning. Dr. Tara Ashok of the University of Massachusetts Boston chronicles the personal eLearning tool kit she has selected for effective delivery of contents in different teaching formats. She posits the importance of developing a new mindset to adapt to emerging technologies and examines the literature and her own experiences suggesting how and why, eLearning pedagogy must include a focus on the development of a flexible / growth mindset.

The Open Research Agenda is an international consultation exercise on research priorities in open education which combines online surveys and focus group interactions. This presentation summarises thematic analysis of the data set and indicates future directions for research in the field of open education.
OERRH Data Report 2013-2015: Informal LearnersOER Hub
In 2013 the Hewlett-funded OER Research Hub Project created a bank of survey questions to test eleven hypotheses related to the impact of OER use on teaching and learning. In the two years that followed, a number of bespoke surveys were designed and administered in collaboration with the Flipped Learning Network, Vital Signs, the Community Colleges Consortium for Open Educational Resources, OpenLearn, Saylor Academy, OpenStax, BCcampus, Siyavula, School of Open-P2PU and CoPILOT. Responses from each survey were then combined into a larger dataset to allow for comparison and in-depth examination.
The current report, first in a series of three, presents a frequencies analysis of responses from informal learners, i.e. those learners not registered on a course of study at an educational institution.

CCCOER Webinar: OER Research on Open Textbook adoption and LibrariansOER Hub
"OER Research on Open Textbook adoption and Librarians" was presented by Beck Pitt on 10 December 2014 as part of a CCCOER webinar with Nicole Allen (SPARC) and Una Daly.
These slides were created by reversioning two previous presentations: Librarians Perceptions of OER and Open Access Week 2014: Open Textbook Research Overview (also available on Slideshare).
What difference does openness make to ethics? This session will examine this question both from the perspective of research into OER and the use of open resources in teaching and learning. An outline of the nature and importance of ethics will be provided before the basic principles of research ethics are outlined through an examination of the guidance provided by National Institutes of Health (2014) and BERA (2014). The importance and foundation of institutional approval for OER research activities is reiterated with a focus on underlying principles that can also be applied openly.
I argue that with a shift to informal (or extra-institutional) learning there is a risk that we lose some clarity over the nature and extent of our moral obligations when working outside institutional frameworks – what Weller (2013) has termed "guerilla" research activity. Innovations of this kind could be free of licensing permissions; they could be funded by kickstarter or public-private enterprise; or they could reflect individuals working as data journalists. But we might also speak of "guerilla" education for innovations taking place on the fringes of institutional activity – from using social media to going full-blown "edupunk" (Groom, 2008). These innovations which employ variants of opennesss can also bring out morally complex situations.
I show how the principles underlying traditional research ethics can be applied openly while noting that, whether working within or outside institutions, there is almost no existing guidance that explains the ethical implications of working openly. Similar issues are raised with MOOC, which operate outside institutions but while drawing on institutional reputations and values. With this in mind I sketch out scenarios we are likely to encounter in the future of education:
- Issues around privacy, security and big data
- Intellectual property conflicts
- Ensuring fair treatment of class students and equivalent online students
- Meeting obligations to content creators
- The ethical status of MOOCs and their obligations to their students
- Moral dimensions of open licenses
- The ethics of learning analytics and the data it produces
I argue that, while models for ethical analysis have been proposed (e.g. Farrow, 2011) more attention should be paid to the ethics of being open. I conclude with an examination of the idea that we have a moral obligation to be open, contrasting prudential and ethical approaches to open education. At the heart of the OER movement, I argue, is a strong moral impulse that should be recognized and celebrated rather than considered the preserve of the ideologue: openness is not reducible to lowering the marginal cost of educational resources. Openness is a diverse spectrum and to leverage its true potential we need to reflect deeply on how technology has the power to challenge the normative assumptions we make about education.

How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

18. Case study 1
“This course has been fully developed from scratch without [copyright
restrictions] and is released free on the web for any teacher or student
to use or remix. As a result, I do not treat this curriculum as
mine –it belongs to the class and to the world.”
https://sites.google.com/a/byron.k12.mn.us/stats4g/home/syllabus
19. Case study 1
“Kids can get mad at me for my content because they are like ‘Look at
how awful this is’ and I’m like “Perfect, let’s fix it’ (…) If I just took
some other course and said ‘Let’s all take this course
and make it better’ and I put no effort into it myself,
that would be probably a lot more frustrating”
20. Case study 2
“Two weeks ago, I had the chance to help out one of our teachers as
she worked with some 4th graders on math. Instead of “teaching” the
students, she had each student design a lesson they could teach to the
world. They designed their presentation and used a screen capture
program (…) to record their session. We then posted the video to
YouTube and now these 10 year olds are teaching the world math
lessons. It has been motivating for these students to
see how many people watch their videos. It has also
helped them to understand the topic that they presented on”.
http://jonbergmann.com/students-as-creators-of-content/
21. Case study 3
“Even though I knew we had to read Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, I
could not send these kids home with Chaucer (…)
Over the course of an entire semester all the kids turned in on
average 82% of their homework, which is significant for me
because that made me feel that what I was asking them
to do at home, (…) they saw the meaning in doing
that. That to me was a time when I was able to use free online
resources for the best interests of my students.”
22. What I’m thinking…
OER enable new ways of teaching and learning.
Success in flipped learning is measured in terms of student
engagement and motivation.
Teachers’ open practices can help student engagement and
motivation.
23. Thank you for listening
