There has been considerable coverage of the growth of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) that give free access to courses that have familiar structures. However, there are many other ways in which Open Educational Resources are being used and influencing education. In the OER Research Hub we have worked across educational sectors looking at ways that OER are being adopted and used. In this paper we step back from some of the detailed work with collaborating projects to consider their different motivations and shared challenges. The case studies show how openness acts as inspiration, however the impact of openness can be harder to see. Our survey data is showing how open aspects can seem less important as projects seek to build to broad engagement, and that aims of widening access are challenged by findings that open education appeals to those who already have existing confidence and experience. The actions of the collaborating partners seek to address these issues for example through courses that help develop understanding of openness and by understanding the groups that they serve who have special needs.

Presentation by Rebecca Ferguson (IET, The Open University, UK) at the Learning Analytics Summer Institute event (LASI Asia) run in Seoul, South Korea, in September 2016. This presentation, on Visions of the Future of learning analytics, is based on work carried out by the European consortium working on the Learning Analytics Community Exchange (LACE) project.
The Open University (OU) is a global leader in quality online, open and distance education with more than 180,000 students and 8,000 faculty and staff. Like many organizations, the OU is embracing data and learning analytics as an increasingly important approach for understanding learner behaviors. During this Fischer Speaker Series event, Dr. Tynan explores the vagaries of leading an institutional strategy at scale, specifically focusing on faculty, student and institutional engagement with analytics to support student success- detailing wins, pitfalls and unexpected twists resulting in unintended but delightful outcomes.
Professor Belinda Tynan is the Pro- Vice-Chancellor (Learning Innovation) and Professor of Higher Education at the Open University, UK. Reporting to the Vice-Chancellor, the Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Learning Innovation contributes to the strategic vision and mission of the University and has a focus on supporting student success by providing executive leadership in the areas of innovation, strategy and policy development, production, informal learning and research and scholarship in technology enhanced learning.

Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.

2. • Injury is a leading cause of death for
children
• Trauma is not a single disease but a
complex array of responses to injury
• Critical trauma care requires rapid
decision making
– Correct decision making requires practice
International Network for Simulation-based Pediatric Innovation, Research and Education
Background
3. • Challenges in pediatric trauma education
– Duty hour restrictions for trainees
– Limited high acuity patients on the job
– Lack of focus on children in trauma courses
• Providers need training focused on
improving decision-making skills
– Simulation is effective for the team
– How can we train individuals?
