London International Conference in Education2015debbieholley1
This talk offers insights into the current policy 'churn' in the training of both primary and secondary teachers in England, and identifies a gap in provision - with schools spending increasing time developing teachers 'in-house', the ongoing continuous professional development (CPD) of the new entrants to the profession falls between the more formal offerings during in service training days (INSET) and the needs expressed by the trainees/NQTs themselves. Drawing upon the experience of a single University provider of trading in the east of England, covering a wide geographic area and liaising with well over 200 partner schools, three initiatives will be highlighted, critically examined and the implications discussed in the light of limited resource, potentially dis-engaged teachers in their first year in school (only 62% are teaching one year after qualifying) and the need to offer CPD in a more engaging, relevant and accessible manner. The Open Education Resource initiative offers engagement from a local to global stage; access to experts from different countries, and, significantly, offers educators from the Southern Hemisphere access to materials and resources they can share, opportunities to contribute to research initiatives and a forum to make their voices heard. Wider links to work based learning across professions are being explored in my new role at Bournemouth University.

openSE – open educational framework for computer science Software EngineeringAndreas Meiszner
The openSE project brings together higher education institutions, open source projects and enterprises from different countries, from Europe and beyond, to collaboratively build up a common learning ecosystem.
The openSE framework is an open approach to computer science Software Engineering and aims at the continuous provision of up to date and relevant learning materials and opportunities that match students' interests and employers' demand; providing firms with better educated employees and allow learners to acquire an enhanced set of skills than traditional educational provision does. The openSE framework will be open to any type of learner: students of partnering universities, learners from the enterprise field, or 'free learners' outside of any type of formal educational context.

Global knowledge management_pawlowski_2012Jan Pawlowski
The extensive slideset is used for a 5ECTS course on global knowledge management. It covers theoretical aspects as well as practical issues. It is accompanied by a case study on global knowledge management as a practical application of the theoretical concepts. For further information, please contact me.The slides can be used for non-commercial purposes but please inform me how you used them!
The presentation shows 5 main trends for e-learning - it is a starting point for discussions, slides can be re-used for workshops on trend identification and roadmapping
Knowledge Management (KM) is a social activity. More and more organizations use social software as a tool to bridge the gap between technology- and human-oriented KM. In order to create interoperable, transferable solutions, it is necessary to utilize standards. In this paper, we analyze which standards can be applied and which gaps currently exist. We present the concept of knowledge bundles, capturing information on knowledge objects, activities and people as a prerequisite for social-focused KM. Based on our concept and examples, we derive the strong need for standardization in this domain. As a manifesto this paper tries to stimulate discussion and initiating a broad initiative working towards a common standard for the next generation of knowledge management systems. Our manifesto provides with eight recommendations how the KM community should act to address future challenges.
The Personalization Challenge: Context and Culture Metadata for Mobile Learning
In this keynote, we addressed m-learning adaptation based on a standardized context description. The context description contains cultural, organization and individual factors as a base for adaptable and adaptive systems. This is used on the openscout project which is about adaptation of learning resources also in the international context.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

8. The starting points
Waste amount of content is available in repositories, a
large number of experts and users are active in social
networks
Great potentials for collaboration, sharing and social
innovation
OER is a big topic for the E-Learning community
Current trends
– From contents to context
– From repositories to practices
– From (technology-supported) mass sharing to
human-oriented, trusted networks
The Nordlet perspective
– Nordic countries have a strong tradition for
education as a public good
– Baltic countries have undergone rapid and dramatic
changes
Great starting point for a free sharing area…
9. Experiences from our Case Study:
Sharing of materials made by
others
Whose Materials would you use?

11. But…
Overall, the willingness to share
materials with other teachers is
high
Willingness to share across the
Nordic Baltic countries is high,
the context seems positive
But: It still does not work…
12. So, why doesn’t it work in
Education?
- Barriers
– ―not invented here‖
+ Potentials & needs
– Education budget
– ―Education is – Focus on new stuff
something special!‖
– ―I have no time‖ – Cooperation and
synergies
– Googling might not be – Skills in the use of ICT
enough and tools
– Complex tools – Enormous resource
– Curriculum integration pools
– Insecurities
–…
14. How to make it work…
Focus on good practices
Improved recommendations
Curriculum integration
Addressing cultural barriers
Providing simple tools and support
mechanisms for adaptation
Integration of users’ requirements, barriers,
needs and preferences
Using existing networks and professional
contacts
– NORDLET!
15. Challenges
Which are good practices?
What are the main barriers and success
factors?
What can we recommend to the Nordic-

17. Creating the Nordic Baltic OER
Declaration
Goal
– Developing a clear statement how to develop
OER in our region
– Identifying the key challenges and solution
– ―How to achieve the Nordic Baltic Free Sharing
Area?‖
Developing clear recommendations for different
levels
– Policy
– Technology
– Pedagogy
– ….
18. Some initial input…Results from the conference wiki
Policy recommendation candidates:
Open Content should be considered in publically funded projects to
improve participation
A Nordic Baltic steering group should be built to monitor and promote
share and re-use across the Baltic and Nordic region
Inclusivity and community ownership is essential - be open to different
ideas and interpretations.
Implementation recommendation candidates:
Build small but efficient sharing communities
Show Open Educational Practices - this will lead to more awareness and
attention and show interested educators how to make use of OER.
Show clear integration steps for the curriculum, this is the main argument
against OER
Ensure quality if you are a provider of Open Content repositories
Build strategies and guidelines in your organization how to incorporate
OER into the daily operations
See OER as a natural extension of current practice, not as a new
"project" dropped in to the middle of current work
19. Some initial input…
Results of the Stockholm preparation workshop, Oct 2011
Build small but efficient sharing communities
Show Open Educational Practices - this will lead to more
awareness and attention and show interested educators
how to make use of OER.
Show clear integration steps for the curriculum, this is the
main argument against OER
Ensure quality if you are a provider of Open Content
repositories
Build strategies and guidelines in your organization how to
incorporate OER into the daily operations..
See OER as a natural extension of current practice, not as a
new "project" dropped in to the middle of current work
20. Some initial input…
On Oct. 14th, a small preparation workshop was held in Stockholm with a
small group of experts on OER - the result was an unexpectedly huge list of
recommendations, here listed in an unreflected format...what is missing still?
Still to be sorted...
Accreditation authorities: It is mandatory or a criteria for good evaluation of
institutions or research centres to use/publish OER resources
Open Standards should be used in order to give real access to OER You
should be able to use, reuse, mix and remix a resource
The author rights should be ―addressed‖, i.e., the author should be
convinced to give his resources away
Technical Identification of resources gives a key to sharing
Career part of authorship should be separated from the commercial side
Make it much easier to attribute resources - people are in a hurry
The institution has to support the authors in their authoring and publication
process, ensuring that the attribution and carrier aspects of producing
resources are fulfilled
Make it more ―attractive‖ to reference OER authors - make it cool to build on
your peers
Unpack the possibilities of accreditation institutions to promote OER
practices --teachers should have OER --include work of other colleagues --
use international resources
21. Some initial input…
Providing OER to the community should be valued in assessment systems
as community & research contributions
Investigate if the tools work contrary to OER, e.g., using the digital
whiteboards to push things to your own ―teaching web‖ – Turn the teachers
right to his/her own resources as a means to open up access to resources
Give easy control of what is available or not
Explore the differences in HE and Schools
Evaluation of HE academics and K12 teachers is very different
Collaboration support built into the solutions we provide to our institutions
Ensure that authorship is not lost - traceability, tools...
Cushion the lazy people Incentive from above, collaborative work is needed
more than ever
Fight ―what is free is not good‖ - or at least prove that they are wrong
Learn from the Open Source community and history - the Darwinistic
solution to promote OER. The dinosaurs will die (well, then we wait for the
next meteorite)
Self-flagellate the OER apostles (when the reach a critical mass)
Test the assumptions
Globish Observe the differences (levels, domains, etc.) -- some resources
travel better then others
22. Some initial input…
Language matters - technology (translators) may come to help Make
language technology used by the intelligence community free!!!!
Bridge up with other communities, e.g., the library sector, the open data
community…
The Ministries must provide risk funds, to allow schools and universities
to take risks supporting OER (allow you to guarantee that you have all
rights to a work)
Wrong doers should get absolution Explore the danger of being sued if
you do anything wrong explore the barriers from the individual’s
perspective OER as a mandatory element of teacher professional
practice, teachers education
digital (OER) literacy is key to progress
Ontology work in the ED domain should be encouraged.
Google should be the only solution for finding resources --work with
Google --work besides Google --prepare if Google defaults
23. Some initial input…
Liaise with the forest department - to unhide the trees from the forest
Build OER practices into the socio-technical practices of LET
Is OER the top level term (what we want to achieve)? Open access
more important than OER?
Buy a hen. Make an egg. Get a chicken. Open and Accessible
Resources Remember that OER are used within LET - and the context
rules
What is Open? -- don't forget to have a nice discussion on this question
Identify the barriers the end users experience, e.g., language,
technology, licence, competence, etc.
Easily share stuff with defined groups of people. So, we need some
Enterprise stuff in place to support efficient sharing.
Standards’ contributions --Groups (G+?) --Sharing interface
Recognise the licence etc
Aspects of classification
Open within boundaries – is it still OER?
Quality - community based quality mechanisms
Quality assurance close to the end users
