Interesting article about academic publishing model

by Rosario Passos

Good morning everyone, Here is an interesting read about the academic publishing model and how unsustainable it is. Libraries are struggling, making difficult decisions, and getting the blame, when the blame lies with the publishers and their inequitable model.

Webinar Series: Open Education Stories from Across B.C.- 1st webinar Jan 31 with Elizabeth Childs

by Rosario Passos

Hi there everyone, Exciting News! BCcampus is planning a series of monthly webinars starting January 31. The webinar series is called: Open Education Stories from Across BC. See information about the 1st webinar in the forwarded email below: Webinar Series: Open Education Stories from Across B.C. The first webinar will be on January 31 from 10 am- 11 am with Elizabeth Childs Webinar link: [ https://sas.elluminate.com/m.jnlp?password=M.9716A481E77FC1D4085E27F9A85CF8… | https://sas.elluminate.com/m.jnlp?password=M.9716A481E77FC1D4085E27F9A85CF8… ] Presenter : Elizabeth Childs, Royal Royals University Webinar Series : Open Education Stories from Across B.C. Presentation title : Faculty Experiences Adopting Openness as a Core Value Presentation Description : This presentation reports on the experiences faculty members designing and developing a Master's degree in Learning and Technology when they adopted openness as a core value and key design principle. A growing body of evidence suggests that adoption of open educational resources (OER), and especially open textbooks, leads to lower costs for students without having negative impacts on academic outcomes (e.g., Hilton, in press; Wiley, Williams, DeMarte, & Hilton, 2016). While the benefits of open textbooks and OER are compelling, little is known about programs that are designed with openness as a core value. What does it mean to embrace open practices and embody an open philosophy at the program and course level within a Master's program? What are faculty experiences with such an approach? How can the student experience be optimized? In what ways does openness support a diverse student body? What tensions arise and what supports are required to facilitate the transition to an MA degree that not only uses open textbooks but is defined by openness? The MA program that we will present represents a case study for the open community. In this degree, students contribute meaningfully to digital learning networks and communities in the field. The degree prepares students to work in the creation and evaluation of digital learning environments and apply theoretical and practical knowledge to critically analyze learning innovations and assess their impact on organizations and society. Openness is central to the achievement of this program goal. Openness was adopted as a program value predicated on the philosophical stance that open practices lead to collaboration and the development of a digital mindset that values sharing and cultivates networked learning. In this case study of an MA program, open practices are evidenced at the course level in the design of the online experience; through the use of "renewable assignments"; authentic assessment opportunities, in resource curation and, through online facilitation approaches. At the program level, it manifests itself in the intentional open spaces that have been designed into the program which require student identification and completion of personalized areas of inquiry. It is also evidenced through the adoption of open pedagogy as a design principle that informs design and delivery decisions at the course and program level Initial tensions such as coming to a common understanding of openness and what openness can be within the constraints of an institution; how openness supports or detracts from online community; the role of openness in the creation of safe learning environments and, ways to support adjunct faculty for designing for openness will be highlighted in this presentation. This MA program is currently under development so by November additional strategies that have been used to develop a common understanding around openness and open pedagogy at the faculty and institutional level will also be discussed. In addition, various supports that have been used in working with adjunct faculty in course design with openness as a core value will be shared. References Hilton III, J. (in press).

Textbookbroke campaigns

by Flewelling, Debra

Hello, It is that time of semester when we hopefully see more attention brought to the high cost of textbooks. UVIC made the papers - http://www.saanichnews.com/news/410166795.html#.WHZqlZmgDuo.twitter And here at Douglas, the Douglas College Student Union set up a table set in our concourse area (see attached picture). I took the picture at the end of the day but during the day I noticed they had a lot of traffic around the table. Did anything happen at your institution that you would like to share?

Information on printed open textbooks

by Flewelling, Debra

Hello, I thought I would share with you what we do with printed open textbooks in our library collection. We purchase print copies to show faculty the textbook and we use them for displays on open textbooks. However, since some of them do end up in our regular collection, we want to make sure students understand that they are freely available online, so we put a QR code and note on the front of the textbook (see attached). Also, because some of the open textbooks come directly from OpenStax and some come from BCcampus Open textbooks, we now have a series entry for Open Textbooks and it will apply to any open textbook searched by either title or keyword. We also now have our first open textbook on Reserve. Some students just like the physical still :) http://orca.douglascollege.ca/record=b1938201~S9 Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Debra Debra Flewelling Open Education & Emerging Technologies Librarian T 604.527.5190 F 604.527.5193 Debra.Flewelling(a)douglascollege.ca<mailto:Debra.Flewelling@douglascollege.ca> [Description: logo_2012_for_email_signature77172]

Fwd: [OPENNESS] Opportunity to participate in OER Survey focused on Instructor Incentives by Athabasca University team

by Rosario Passos

Hi there everyone, Maybe you can circulate this among your faculty contacts who may be interested in participating. Cheers, Rosario Begin forwarded message: Date: 28 November 2016 06:07:50 GMT-8 Reply-To: The EDUCAUSE OPENNESS Constituent Group Listserv < OPENNESS(a)LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU > From: Serena Henderson < serena.b.henderson(a)GMAIL.COM > Subject: [OPENNESS] Call for Participants: OER Movement Survey To: OPENNESS(a)LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU OER Movement Survey Call for Participants We are researchers at Athabasca University and invite you to participate in a research study entitled “Barriers, Incentives, and Benefits of the OER Movement: An Exploration into Instructor Perspectives.” The purpose of this research is to explore the perspectives of instructors in various geographical areas on barriers, incentives, and benefits to using and creating OER materials. In a survey conducted by Cengage Learning (2016), the White Paper identifies that Open Educational Resources (OER) will potentially triple in size over the next five years; however, it also exposes that there continues to be barriers to adoption, use, and creation which exist that are inhibiting the full adoption of OER. This research will explore the perspectives of K-12 and higher education instructors in various geographical areas on the barriers, incentives, and benefits to OER use to provide various views into this topic for potential policy and sociocultural modifications. Your participation will involve completing one online survey that will be about 15 minutes in duration. The survey data will be initially collected and stored on a server in the U.S. and is subject to access under the US Patriot Act until it is transferred from that server to the researcher's computer. All information collected in this study will remain anonymous. No individually-identifiable information about you, or provided by you during the research, will be collected. All research data will be kept on a secure drive for which only the principle researchers and their assistants will have access. Data will not be destroyed as we intend to rerun the study at some time inthe future and will pull various reports based on specific demographic information such as geographical area and employment. The study may be replicated in 5 to 10 years. We hope that you will consider participating in the survey, and you can find the link to the survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/oermovement Please feel free to forward the survey link and information to other interested people.

Fwd: Creating a Library Presence in Canvas

by Rosario Passos

Hi everyone, Thought some of you might be interested in this, especially the institutions that use Canvas. From: "Horan, Elizabeth" <ehoran(a)coastline.edu> To: cccoer-advisory(a)googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, November 8, 2016 1:30:18 PM Subject: Creating a Library Presence in Canvas Hi all, I wanted to share this great resource for creating a Library Presence in Canvas. Please share with your librarians. Creating a Library Presence in Canvas As California community colleges adopt the Canvas Learning Management System (LMS) as part of the state’s Online Education Initiative, librarians have new opportunities to bring library research and information literacy instruction into the online environment. Sponsored by the Council of Chief Librarians, Erin Daniels and Phyllis Usina, librarians at Santa Rosa Junior College, have prepared a guide that identifies ways in which commonly available library services, resources, and programs can be integrated into Canvas. Called, Creating a Library Presence in Canvas , this guide contains features that can be implemented at different levels of the Canvas LMS, including System-wide, Global Navigation, Course Navigation, Module Level, or Page Level. In addition, the authors created digital examples of those resources that lent themselves to replication by preparing a public Canvas course. Librarians are encouraged to visit the public course to see these examples for potential adaptation, and to download a copy of the 41-page guide. Find the guide and sample resources in this public Canvas course: https://canvas.santarosa.edu/courses/19390 Special thanks to Erin Daniels and Phyllis Usina for this helpful resource.

Stats on Fair Dealing?

by Rosario Passos

Hi all, Doe anyone know of any statistics on Fair Dealing? David Porter was wondering the following: "Anybody have any stats on fair dealing? That is, how many faculty or instructors make use of the provisions. Library data? Doesn’t some university have an app that automatically captures that kind of data from faculty members submissions and requests for evaluation of fair dealing amounts permissible in Canada?" If you know of any data, please let me know.

Strong submissions include all three features of the Creative Commons story: 1) the creator/entity and the choice to openly license, 2) the user and the act of adapting and remixing, and 3) the resulting positive impact for a broader public. https://creativecommons.org/2016/10/04/2016-state-commons-call-submissions/ Cheers, Rosario Passos Advisor, Open Education BC campus | connect.collaborate.innovate. 236-888-8599 | rosario.passos(a)bccampus.ca 200-555 Seymour Street | Vancouver BC V6B 3H6 bccampus.ca | @BCcampus | #BCcampus Twitter: @PW_Passos | Skype: Portuguese_woman

by Flewelling, Debra

Hello, You would have recently received an email welcoming you to this new listserv and this is because you were on the BCOER Librarians listserv. As you know from a previous email I sent to this group, we now have a Steering Committee. The Steering Committee decided to change the name to the BC Open Education Librarians (BCOEL) to have a broader scope and not restricted to "resources". You'll find attached the minutes from our first meeting. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Also, stay tuned for more information about Open Access Week events in October - https://bccampus.ca/event/open-access-week-2016/ Debra, BCOEL Chair Debra Flewelling Open Education & Emerging Technologies Librarian T 604.527.5190 F 604.527.5193 Debra.Flewelling(a)douglascollege.ca<mailto:Debra.Flewelling@douglascollege.ca> [Description: logo_2012_for_email_signature77172]
