Open Access Week and Beyond (OLA Super Conference)Robyn Hall
Poster presented at the Ontario Library Association Super Conference in Toronto on February 26, 2010.
Abstract: Academic librarians’ support of open access publishing initiatives has enhanced library collections, research innovation and the visibility of institutions’ output. Many have paid less attention, however, to educating university students about open access resources. Drawing on exemplary promotional efforts, this poster describes ways that Canadian academic librarians might ensure students know about open access resources and understand their potential uses and limitations, from actively participating in Open Access Week to integrating open access topics into instruction sessions and beyond. During the poster session, information about recent developments in the open access movement in Canada will also be made available.

Open education has been gaining visibility and momentum as part of open government initiatives — from open licensing of publicly-funded educational materials, to transparency in education funding, to leveraging open technologies and practices to increase the efficiency and efficacy of instruction. One important avenue for advancing these conversations is the Open Government Partnership (OGP), a multilateral initiative of more than 60 countries through which national governments make commitments to being more open, accountable and responsive to citizens. At least three countries involved in OGP have specifically adopted commitments to open education in their open government plans, the United States, Slovakia, and Spain, and numerous others are considering moving in this direction through an informal working group formed during the 2015 OGP Summit. Leading examples of OGP commitments in education include three international OER pilot programs run by the U.S. Department of State, and an initiative in the Slovak government to develop a procurement process for openly licensed educational resources. Alongside OGP, open education has also emerged in other international policy conversations, including the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. This lightning talk will explore the connection between open education and open government, and opportunities for civil society members and government officials alike at the local, national and international levels.

SPARC Webcast: Libraries Leading the Way on Open Educational ResourcesNicole Allen
This webcast features three librarians who have been leading OER projects on their campuses. Each will provide an overview of the project, discuss the impact achieved for students, and provide practical tips and advice for other campuses exploring OER initiatives.
Marilyn Billings, Scholarly Communication & Special Initiatives Librarian, University of Massachusetts Amherst Libraries. Marilyn coordinates the Open Education Initiative, which has saved students more than $750,000 since 2011 by working with faculty to identify low-cost and free alternatives to expensive textbooks.
Kristi Jensen, Program Development Lead, eLearning Support Initiative, University of Minnesota Libraries. The University of Minnesota has emerged as a national leader through its Open Textbook Library, which is a searchable catalog of more than 100 open textbooks. The Libraries also partnered with other entities on campus for their Digital Course Pack project, which has helped streamline the course pack process and make materials more affordable for students.
Shan Sutton, Associate University Librarian for Research and Scholarly Communication, Oregon State University Libraries. The OSU libraries are partnering with the OSU Press for a pilot program to develop open access textbooks by OSU faculty members. The program issued an RFP in the fall, and recently announced four winning proposals that will be published in 2014-2015.
According to the Open Education Consortium, “sharing is probably the most basic characteristic of education: education is sharing knowledge, insights, and information with others, upon which new knowledge, skills, ideas, and understanding can be built." Whether they are purchased or freely acquired, librarians should be open to sharing their resources to everyone who wants to use them to enrich their lives through education. Open Education Resources (OER) include resources or tools that can be used and modified for free and without any legal or technical barriers, and when used properly can help foster a transparent culture of learning and engagement in our communities. In this webinar:
• Learn what Open Education Resources (OER) are and how they can be used to engender trust, generate rigorous learning opportunities, and potentially lead to smarter decision-making strategies.
• Discover a variety of OER and Open Access (OA) repositories to find accessible and authoritative resources, including textbooks, to use in curriculum.
• Acquire OER strategies for developing a variety of educational opportunities using a variety of formats.
•Understand various issues (e.g., GDPR) impacting OER in libraries.

This project seeks to cascade support for embedding Open Educational Resources within the social sciences curriculum.

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.

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

6. Contextualizing open education
“open education encompasses resources, tools and practices that
employ a framework of open sharing to improve educational access
and effectiveness worldwide." (Open Education Consortium)
“open education is not limited to just open educational resources. It
also draws upon open technologies that facilitate collaborative,
flexible learning and the open sharing of teaching practices that
empower educators to benefit from the best ideas of their colleagues.”
(The Cape Town Open Education Declaration, 2007, para. 4).
9. Open Educational Resources (OER)
Teaching, learning, and research resources that
reside in the public domain or are released under
an intellectual property license that permits their
no-cost access, use, adaptation and redistribution
by others with no or limited restrictions.
https://www.hewlett.org/strategy/open-educational-resources/
11. Open Educational Resources
Any kind of teaching materials – open
textbooks, syllabi, lesson plans, videos,
readings, exams, images, simulations,
full courses, games, lectures, etc.
12. • Download and keep your own copyRetain
• Use the original, revised, or remixed copy of the
resource publiclyReuse
• Edit, adapt, and modify a copy of the resourceRevise
• Combine the original or revised copy of the resource with
other existing material to create something newRemix
• Share copies of the original, revised, or remixed copy

25. Why should libraries advocate for OER?
Commitment to access and sharing knowledge
We work closely with faculty and students
We support the teaching, learning, research, outreach
missions of our institutions
Our collections support academic programs, courses,
and curriculum
Libraries are trusted
26. Role of Theological Librarians in OER
Initiatives
Facilitate the discovery, curation, evaluation of OER
29. For theological libraries,
searching for only OER can
be a challenge. Consider
other “free” resources such
as library-subscribed
materials and resources in
the public domain.
