Trends and issues in open educational resources and massive open online coursesAva Chen
The Internet revolution has facilitated the concept of openness now more than ever. A number of current technologies support the paradigm of modern education in terms of creation, communication, and collaboration. Various open educational learning resources, tools, and pedagogical approaches are used in teaching and learning. Open educational resources (OERs) is one of examples that represent a global phenomenon in an innovation approach that promote unrestricted access as a possible solution for bridging the knowledge divide in higher education. OERs open up opportunities to create, share, and facilitate learning and ethical practice by creating, using, and managing by offering a wider array of educational resources among a greater diversity of global learners. Its trends and movements have become more prominent as not only a phenomenon but as a way of improving the quality of education. OERs alone are not sustainable on their own dimension. It has to combine concepts from different inter-disciplinary areas such as education for sustainable development and business perspectives. Therefore, this seminar focuses on the discussion of current trends, issues, and example of current global practices of OERs and MOOCs.
Opening the Gate: Using OER to Create and Share Coursescccscoetc
Presentation given at the eLearning in Colorado Consortium Annual Conference in Breckenridge, CO; April 16-18, 2014. Open educational resources are changing the landscape of course content into a more transparent and open process that fosters fellowship across departments and educational institutions. In the spirit of the process, Colorado Community College System received a TAACCCT grant with the stipulation of publishing the courses to OER. CCCS has been successful in creating/sharing content between the 13 system colleges, 3 independent colleges and the world .
This presentation looks at how to methodically search for OER using the concept of Desirability. The slides highlights how the Relevance, Openness and Accessibility aspects of OER are used to locate material which are useful in course development.
Winning Friends and Influencing People: OER and Higher Education Affordability.Marilyn K. Moody
Presentation at the Open Education 2016 Conference, Richmond, VA, November 2, 2016. #opened16
Abstract: Abstract:
Higher Education stakeholders, including students, parents, faculty, administrators, legislators, state higher education boards, trustees, alumni, and donors are all concerned about the high cost of education and its impact on students. Positioning OER within the broader context of college affordability creates interest in the creation and use of OER, as well as powerful allies for OER initiatives. Approaches and examples of how to communicate OER value for affordability efforts and influence these varied stakeholders will be included in this presentation. Portland State University and its use of OER and the creation of open textbooks in the context of university initiatives to increase affordability by reducing student costs for course materials will be described as one example. Insights and lessons learned will also be highlighted

El Aprendizaje en Pares y Proyecto (PPL) es un modelo interactivo de aprendizaje centrado en el estudiante, que puede ser fácilmente adoptado por cualquier instructor que quiera cambiar su rol clásico de entregar información a sus estudiantes, a un modelo donde su rol principal es administrar un conjunto completo de instrucciones. PPL se diseña para cumplir los objetivos de STEM y está constituido de dos partes fundamentales; de aprendizaje en pares en el aula y de aprendizaje basado en proyecto en el laboratorio. En PPL, los estudiantes toman un papel activo para construir su conocimiento científico, los que van desde la Lectura Previa a la Clase, Preguntas Conceptuales en la Instrucción en Pares, Trabajo en equipo para la solución de Problemas, Desarrollo y Presentación del Proyecto.

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.

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.
