Virtually Real Open Practice presentation #1527 at OER17
Theme: Participation & Social Equality
Author: Chris Follows
Technology is rapidly transforming the way we live, learn, work and interact. This paper aims to highlight and support debate around how we ‘teach digital’ in creative arts education and what potential impacts the UK digital economy could have on current and emerging digital practices and open education.
Emergent technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) can present new challenges for teachers who are struggling to integrate evolving digital practices into the curriculum. As a result, new technologies & practices remain inaccessible and therefore reside outside the curriculum, not too dissimilar to challenges faced by those exploring open education integration at University of the Arts London (UAL).
The pace of technological change and its impact on the day-to-day practices of University staff and students is fast becoming an issue for everyone. Could the process of Digital Transformation be an opportunity for the open education movement & communities to explore new models of mainstream integration?
LAEP Visions of the Future of Learning AnalyticsDoug Clow
Presentation on the LACE project's Visions of the Future of Learning Analytics work from the LAEP project's expert workshop in Amsterdam, 15-16 March 2016.
How can universities scale up learning analytics beyond small-scale pilots to seriously use data to improve student learning? This interactive workshop was designed to help you think this through for your institution.
Universities are hard to change. Having good data and analytics is a good start, but is only one part of success. This session will provide tools and frameworks to help you analyse what else is needed, building on experiences of successful large-scale learning analytics activity at the Open University and the University of Technology, Sydney, and from the pan-European Learning Analytics Community Exchange project.
Slides for a talk at Bett, London, 20 January 2016.

Creating an action plan for learning analyticsDoug Clow
Slides for a talk at Bett 2015, London, on Friday 23 January at Excel.
Learning analytics has great potential. By using data more effectively, we can understand and improve learning and the learning environment. Trail-blazing projects, exciting demonstrations and earnest strategy papers set out a compelling vision for data in HE.
That vision can sometimes seem far from institutional reality. How can we get some of those benefits for our learners?
This interactive workshop will help participants assess their institution’s current capability for making use of learning analytics, and help them plan for action. The facilitators will draw on a wide range of practical experience, including from the pan-European Learning Analytics Community Exchange project.

The changing role of the IT leader - Jisc Digital Festival 2015Jisc
The higher education IT enterprise has become complex. The IT department is no longer simply responsible for provisioning IT infrastructure and services, but increasingly helps to re-envision business and service models—all in a context of cost and accountability pressures.
IT is simultaneously more challenging, relevant, and exciting than ever; leading IT requires unique characteristics and capabilities.

Remote Experimentation from Research to Education: A European RoadmapJohann Marquez-Barja
Keynote @ 13th International Conference on Remote Engineering and Virtual Instrumentation REV16
The European Commission has funded, through different programmes such as FP6, FP7 and H2020, several high-performance testbed facilities towards empowering telecommunications research in academia and industry. Such a wide range of experimentation facilities provides cutting-edge technologies, from optical networks to wireless communication technologies, for research within the Future Internet and Research Experimentation (FIRE) initiative. The explosive growth of online learning technologies and, in particular, the rise of remote laboratories for education, enables the use of such research facilities for technology-enhanced learning purposes. The FP7 project FORGE (Forging Online Education through FIRE) has developed a framework that exposes the testbed facilities in an easy manner for remote experimentation that can be integrated into both traditional classroom-based and online learning courses. Moreover, FORGE facilitates the use of those federated facilities by providing widgets, adapters, and courses that can be used/reused anywhere around the world and delivered through different platforms, such as tablets, laptops, PCs or smartphones. This talk will present an overview of such facilities, the FORGEBox framework and its components. Furthermore, it will cover the methodology for using such free resources and to create new courses using FORGE remote labs. Finally a roadmap for adapting experimentation from research to education will be discussed.

Presentation from the BELNET user conference http://bnc.belnet.be/bnc_2010 perspectives on what a national research network should to to support education and students needs
National research networks must work closely with the universities as we are challenged with supporting advanced research (LHC data flows and grids) at the same level as digital native students (social media, podcast lectures).
The proliferation of communication technologies is profoundly changing the nature of academic practice. In this presentation I describe the impact of blogging and social networking tools on the practice and dissemination of academic research across disciplinary boundaries. I suggest that the traditional notion of the university is giving way to communities of scholars who are not tied to particular institutions, and less dependent on traditional forms of dissemination and publication. The resulting ‘democratisation’ of academia is portrayed in terms of a tension between democracy and expert knowledge mediated by technology.
One prominent contemporary challenge for technologists is to understand the ongoing impact of technological change on academic communities. At The Open University, the Digital Scholarship research team is mapping the use of Twitter in order to better understand user engagement with these technologies. I will present headline findings from this research and discuss the implications for scholarly practice at the OU.

Open Data and Higher Education: future gains and current practiceSu White
The arguments which promote the use and potential of open data in education can trace their roots back to scholarly communication communities.
The close symbiosis between the Web as we know it and the values and working practices of scholars in higher educational institutions has been acknowledged.
The work of HEIs is complex and extends well beyond research and education. Education is a costly and increasingly competitive business. Costs are associated not only with research and education but with a vast array of back office administrative functions and demands to publish performance indicators to the public domain.
This presentation will argue that HEIs are in a powerful position to couple the insights which accrue thanks to their roles as creators and early adopters of open data. Open data practices afford gains which complement the exchange of new knowledge, and the sharing of knowledge and information for public good - especially if it has been funded by the public purse.
Internally, insightful use of private open data had the potential to streamline administrative and educational processes. Evolving understandings of the potential and power of data driven approaches may enable institutions to gain economic and reputational advantage potentially driving down internal costs, streamlining aspects of the research process, making positive contributions to teaching and the support of teaching and learning, along with enhancing services which promote educational choice and student recruitment."

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.
