Hard won: the challenges of obtaining scholarly communication knowledge & skillsDanny Kingsley
This is a talk presented to ALIA HLA Lunchtime Series 2021: 'All things Open' - updates on the current state of Open Scholarship in Australia: Event 1
ABSTRACT: "This talk will consider the challenges associated with identifying and acquiring the skills needed in scholarly communication. It will describe some of the findings from a recent Australasian survey https://cpas.anu.edu.au/research/research-projects/scholarly-communication-knowledge-and-skills-australasian-research considering the educational and training backgrounds of people working in scholarly communication support, and their confidence in a range of specific competencies. The talk will also discuss the need to identify and articulate a curriculum for scholarly communication for the research community and how this will both inform the skill sets needed within academic and other research libraries and assist future workforce planning."

Join Malcolm Brown, EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative director, and Veronica Diaz, ELI associate director, as they moderate this webinar with Cable Green, PhD, Director of Global Learning, Creative Commons. Cable Green, Director of Global Learning @ Creative Commons, will discuss how, if we are smart, we will use today's technical and legal tools to build and share high quality, affordable educational resources with everyone who wants to learn. The combined forces of digital content, the Internet and the effect of Moore's law push the cost of storing, replicating and distributing educational materials, once created, to near zero. Open licensing allows this content to be reused, revised, remixed and redistributed so others may localize, customize, translate, and (most important) collect and share open data on the effectiveness of the educational resources to continuously improve their quality. Cable will also discuss how open policies, once adopted, make sustainability a non-issue and ensure publicly funded educational resources are open educational resources.

This is a presentation given to the RLUK 2016 conference held 9-11 March 2016 at the British Library.
Abstract: Before we challenge something it is helpful to understand it. In this talk Danny Kingsley will draw on a debate piece she recently co-authored that argued that open access has been systematically blamed for problems with the scholarly publishing system. This talk argues that amongst librarians, the knowledge of the scholarly communication system is even weaker than within the research community. As a library community we need to increase real understanding of the beast with which we dance. To do so requires a systematic change to the way librarians are educated, their professional development and a shift from managing the academic literature to participating in the generation of it. To not do so risks irrelevance into the future.
So, what's it all about then? Why we share research dataDanny Kingsley
This is the Keynote talk at a Jisc Research Data Network meeting held at Cambridge University on 6 September 2016. The research data network is designed to be a people network offering participants a place to demonstrate practical research data management implementations and to discuss current issues relating to research data in institutions. This keynote discusses two of the most common excuses for not sharing data and then broadens the discussion out to the need for a move to Open Research of which open data is only a small but essential part.
Keynote address at Innovation in Tertiary Education Services 2014 conference, Auckland, New Zealand, 5th May 2014.
Discusses how MOOCs are stimulating a climate of innovation and change in education online, shows case studies of innovative teaching formats in a range of Universities and Community Colleges.
Argues that MOOCs are performing at plateau of stable expectations, and that their greatest impact is a set of invigorated conversations around cost, access, quality and delivery of education.
Compares two interdisciplinary courses, one a blended/hybrid course at Harrisburg Community Colleges, and one offered later as a MOOC at UC Irvine, both using topic of Zombies as a vehicle.
Concludes that MOOCs have unleashed an innovative set of approaches across HE (rather than being in them selves innovative). Schools focussed on classroom delivery have an opportunity to re-invent what they do. Elite institutions can use the MOOC as an intermediary format for delivering their content across multiple formats

California ZTC Degrees Panel: Past, Present, and FutureUna Daly
Online Teaching Conference 2020: Twenty-six California Community Colleges embarked on a journey to create thirty-four Zero Textbook Cost (ZTC) Degrees to dramatically reduce the financial burden of earning an associate degree or career technical education certificate. More than 20,000 students over three years would benefit from this approach to eliminating the barrier of textbook costs. Data collected from participating colleges show that all students in ZTC pathways did better than those in non-ZTC courses, and that traditionally underserved populations did even better.
With proven results of reducing equity gaps, the Governor has proposed doubling the initial $5 million ZTC program to $10 million in FY21, opening this opportunity to more colleges wishing to leverage ZTCs to increase student achievement and reduce equity gaps. Join us to hear from ZTC champions who led the initiative, supporting the faculty who transformed their courses to lower barriers and improve students learning, and ensuring the sustainability of the program. Consider how to integrate a ZTC approach with your distance education, equity, pathways and other student success-centered initiatives. Learn about how students and librarians are poised to play an essential role in the proposed $10 million grant. Finally, learn the critical steps for success and how to assess your college’s readiness for developing ZTC degrees.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
