How can your students use Badges in the classroom? P2PU has built a learner-centered platform for your classroom community to give feedback to each other and recognize skills.
Peer 2 Peer University has a different take on measurement: we see assessment and learning as one loop, with peers constantly giving feedback to each other and learning in that process.
As such, we've build a very different kind of assessment platform: our Badges enable feedback and conversations. This presentation will walk through our platform and present a use case in how Youth Voices Summer Program used Badges for learners to assess each other.
This document summarizes three different open online learning experiences called flavors of learning: 1) A gentle introduction to Python by Steve Carson, 2) Creative learning community by Natalie Rusk, 3) Play with your music by S. Alexander Ruthmann. The experiences leveraged existing resources without a centralized platform or teachers. They explored using email lists, WordPress, and Google+ for communication. The experiences faced challenges with student data distribution and reliance on project timelines but had success with affordability, openness, and learner-defined success. Improvements for the future include new collaboration tools and more flexible, project-based structures.
Jason Haas and Vanessa Gennarelli presented to Dr. Mitchell Resnick's MAS 714 Course "Technologies for Creative Learning" at MIT Media Lab, December 6, 2011
This document discusses badges and P2PU's badge system. It provides background on P2PU and badges, describes the current badge ecosystem including the different types of badges, and outlines plans to test and improve the badge system through empirical research and usability testing. The future sections discusses finishing the plan for the next iteration of the badge system and a phased deployment approach.
The document discusses strategies for user-generated content (UGC) platforms, including curating high-quality content, providing users with content tools and templates, interweaving helpful content, making resources engaging, focusing on real-world applications, and implementing quality assurance processes like community review. The overall message is about guiding users and communities to create valuable UGC through best practices, resources, and governance.
The document discusses strategies for generating user-generated content (UGC) through peer learning. It describes Peer 2 Peer University, which has 67,000 users in 550 courses relying entirely on UGC. The author advocates shining a light on exemplary contributors, providing sample content, developing helpful inline resources, and establishing community safeguards for quality assurance. Readers are challenged to design a platform combining their talents that facilitates UGC using these strategies.

Openness in Open Educational Resources and MOOCs: fact or fiction? Breaking Boundaries
This document discusses open educational resources (OER) and massive open online courses (MOOCs) and their potential to broaden access to education. It provides background on OER and the development of MOOCs. It addresses some perceived "fictions" about openness, OER, and MOOCs by presenting facts. For example, it notes that MOOC participants are diverse in terms of demographics, location, motivation, and engagement. The document also discusses research on MOOC completion rates and student motivation. Overall, it argues that OER and MOOCs represent a significant opportunity to make education more inclusive, flexible and learner-focused.
This document provides an overview of a presentation on open education. It discusses the benefits of open educational resources including full legal control over customized resources, improved student learning through access to customized materials, opportunities for authentic learning activities, and opportunities for collegial collaboration. It emphasizes that open innovation needs to permeate academia and that a well-supported team of open educators can build an impactful open education community. The presentation outlines three strategies for eCampusOntario to translate its strategy into action through funding calls focused on open resources, shared services, and research and innovation.
A short presentation on the practice of Working Out Loud (inspired by John Stepper), and how it can help us to connect, communicate, collaborate and build communities... In this case, the community of practice for IAF (International Association of Facilitators) to spread the practice of facilitation.
Libraries Lead the Way: Open Courses, Open Educational Resoursces, Open PoliciesUna Daly
Libraries are playing a leading role in promoting open educational resources (OER) and open access. Many libraries have created catalogs and guides to curate and provide access to open textbooks and other OER. They are also actively involved in OER initiatives on their campuses to reduce costs for students. The webinar highlighted several examples of libraries that have open textbook catalogs and guides to connect faculty with high-quality OER. It also discussed the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition's (SPARC) efforts to build a librarian network and provide resources to expand librarians' involvement in OER issues.
Network Literacy & the Tools of EngagementAlec Couros
This document discusses network literacy and tools for engagement in education. It covers several topics including forms of openness in education, influences on the field, available tools, and how social networks and new media are changing learning and teaching. Key questions are posed around how knowledge is acquired and controlled. Challenges for teachers with new technologies are addressed, as well as strategies for understanding emerging media and encouraging new forms of creativity in the classroom. Benefits of more open and connected learning experiences are presented.
The document discusses open innovation and rethinking learning resources, experiences, and recognition. It promotes sharing teaching resources openly using Creative Commons licenses to increase access and collaboration. It highlights several open education initiatives in Ontario including Ontario Extend, the Open Textbook Library, and community connectors. The document advocates for rethinking learning designs, resources, and experiences to be more open, authentic, and empower students.
Leveraging tribe as a means for self-actualization can occur through connecting with others in personal learning networks (PLNs) and communities of practice (CoPs). When learners connect locally in professional learning communities (PLCs) and globally through their PLNs and CoPs, it allows for social and collaborative learning that enhances cognitive development. Connecting in online spaces amplifies the sharing of knowledge and ideas in a way that promotes diversity of thought and innovation. Forming connections through PLNs is the beginning of developing one's tribe, which provides opportunities for social and emotional fulfillment through collaboration, collective efficacy and developing a shared identity.
Kristine Michelsen-Correa discusses how Duolingo empowers volunteers to contribute to its global mission of providing free language education. She outlines a 4-step process for developing volunteer-driven language courses: 1) Define clear goals, 2) Start small by launching select languages with basic tools, 3) Track progress through different phases, and 4) Continually learn and iterate based on data. By following these steps and empowering volunteers, Duolingo has grown from a handful of courses to offering over 60 language courses with 85 million learners.
This document discusses open learning at KPU Open Studies. It defines what "open" means in an educational context, including being accessible, transparent, creative, and flexible. Open learning engages learners as partners in their education and respects their prior experience and busy lives. It uses technologies to bridge time and distance while fostering deep engagement and provides support for individual students. Open learning also includes open educational resources, software, networks, and open access journals. The document discusses how open learning can help learners achieve their goals through a personalized learning path incorporating formal, experiential, and documented learning towards degree completion. It outlines some of KPU's challenges and opportunities in open learning and notes some initiatives taken by the Vice Provost
David Porter, the CEO of eCampusOntario, gave a presentation on making open the default in education. He discussed several key points:
1) Extending open practices is a guiding principle, and rethinking needs to be at the core of educational design.
2) When resources are open, it grants more freedoms for sharing, collaboration, and adoption of materials. Open education reduces barriers and allows customization of resources.
3) Beyond just being free, open resources provide benefits like opportunities for authentic learning activities and collegial collaboration through initiatives like textbook sprints.
4) Openness empowers faculty and demonstrates institutions' commitment to their service mission by increasing access to education.
The document summarizes a study on open educational practices (OEP) in higher education. It finds that while some academic staff use OEP, many perceive risks that discourage use. Open educators share four dimensions: balancing privacy and openness, developing digital literacies, valuing social learning, and challenging traditional teaching roles. Higher education institutions should support staff capacity building in these areas through open education strategies and policies that consider individual needs alongside institutional benefits.
Choosing Open (#OEGlobal) - Openness and praxis: Using OEP in HECatherine Cronin
Presentation for Open Education Global Conference (#OEGlobal) in Cape Town, South Africa, 8th March - "Openness and praxis: Using open educational practices in higher education"
This document discusses open educational culture and social innovation. It provides an overview of massive open online courses (MOOCs) and their development over time. Key points addressed include quality considerations for MOOCs, attitudes toward open educational resources, and transforming education from the traditional "sage on the stage" model to a more collaborative "guide on the side" approach using digital technologies and open practices. Drivers for this transformation include digitization, technical innovation, internationalization, and cooperation versus competition.
Minds on fire open education, tail, and learning 2guevarra_2000
This document discusses how social learning and open education resources enabled by the Internet can help address the growing global demand for higher education. It notes that traditional universities will not be able to meet this demand alone. The growth of the Internet has allowed for new models of open and social learning through open courseware, online communities, and peer-to-peer learning. Social learning focuses on interactions around content rather than just content transmission, and involves learning practices of a field through participation. Examples like open source software development show how people can learn through social participation at the periphery of expert communities.
This document discusses connected learning and becoming a connected educator. It promotes the Powerful Learning Practice's Connected Learner Experience happening in Houston and offers free professional learning opportunities in October through the Connected Educators site. It emphasizes that schools need to redefine themselves to prepare students for the future. Connected learning involves personal learning networks, communities of practice, and do-it-yourself professional development. Being a connected learner means asking questions, admitting what you don't know, and collaborating with others.
This document summarizes Vanessa Genarelli's research on coworking spaces. It begins with an introduction to coworking and its origins in 2005. The research questions examine if coworking spaces can expand human potential and which interaction design principles nurture excellent work. Research methods included interviews and site visits to coworking spaces on the East Coast. Key findings discussed recruitment differences between spaces, the importance of onboarding and socialization, the impact of space design on mixing and sharing, and different approaches to discipline and governance and their correlation to culture and sustainability. The discussion examines relationships between emergent culture, mixed desks for skills learning, and low dismissal rates.

The document outlines design priorities and user flows for a badge system called Badges.p2pu.org, including creating badges, applying for badges, reviewing badge applications, and adding badges to courses on p2pu.org. It provides wireframes and user scenarios to illustrate the badge creation process and giving/receiving feedback to earn badges for completed projects.
Formative Evaluation for Educational Product DevelopmentVanessa Gennarelli
This document discusses formative evaluation for educational product development. Formative evaluation involves testing an educational product with users during development to inform the product's direction. It can be conducted at any time during development. Some key methods discussed include interviews, think-aloud protocols, focus groups, questionnaires, and click-testing. Conducting formative evaluation with target users for around a week can help identify usability issues, measure user appeal and engagement, and test user comprehension to improve the educational product.
The document provides guidance on creating courses on the P2PU platform, noting that P2PU courses consist of conversations, activities, and projects. It recommends including interesting projects for learners to accomplish and ways for them to work together and give each other feedback. The document also highlights improvements to the course creation process and user experience, including in-line help, smooth content entry, and markdown support. Learners are directed to the new course creation site and a discussion forum to ask questions and provide feedback to a P2PU representative.
P2PU courses are online learning experiences that involve tasks completed within a set timeframe. Courses have discussions and are facilitated. Challenges are less structured, allow self-paced learning, and use badges for assessment. Both involve projects and skills development. Future plans are to unify courses and challenges into a single learning experience.
This document summarizes research from interviews and usability testing on the process of creating courses on the P2PU platform. Key findings include that users iterate a lot when developing courses, with over 70% visiting P2PU over 20 times. Collaborative tools like Etherpad are popular for drafting content. Recommendations focus on improving the in-platform editing and creation process to better support collaboration and iterative development. Next steps include additional user testing and integrating the findings with other platform initiatives.
The document summarizes user research testing done on the P2PU homepage. Key findings include:
1) Labeling of elements like "featured courses" and "course covers" needed more clarity.
2) The activity feed was often mistaken for Twitter and seen as irrelevant on the homepage.
3) In an annotation test, users were confused by the "Find" vs. "Create" flows and wanted to see courses first before being prompted to create.
4) Future tests should focus questions individually and stagger multiple small tests.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
