Re: [Bcoelsteering] BC Library Conference session on OER

Oh I was just typing another reply to this! Great minds! Was Farhad actually invited to present already? I only ask b/c I think Farhad is speaking at the upcoming ALS session and so we might have some repeats. Rajiv presented a few years back at the BC Library conference and received a very warm reception. Just wondered if he was ever considered as the KPU rep on the panel? If you think it's a good idea, I can approach him. Also I don't think Todd Mundle, the UL at KPU was ever submitted was he? I only ask b/c he was sent some sort of reminder that he was a speaker on OER directly from proposal space yesterday, but I think that might be in error. ________________________________ From: Bcoelsteering &lt;bcoelsteering-bounces(a)mail.bccampus.ca&gt; on behalf of Martin Warkentin &lt;Martin.Warkentin(a)ufv.ca&gt; Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2017 12:02 PM To: 'Rosario Passos'; 'Amanda Coolidge' Cc: 'bcoelsteering' Subject: Re: [Bcoelsteering] BC Library Conference session on OER Hi, all.

The changes they suggest is fine with me. We could try to go just with faculty (say Gill, Farhad and Ken) with a moderator as a fourth person (maybe Rosario, or maybe a librarian). It really depends on when the session is and who is available and willing to attend.

Not sure who the seventh was supposed to be? Maybe Rosario as the moderator? This is the tweak that may require negotiation. I see their point about maximum four, even as an exception, but how do we create a more representative group of stakeholders? And if we pare down the proposed panel, a 25% KPU representation is pretty good isn’t it? Other thoughts? -Martin From: Caroline Daniels [mailto:Caroline.Daniels@kpu.ca] Sent: January-16-17 2:02 PM To: Martin Warkentin; 'bcoelsteering@mail.bccampus.ca<mailto:bcoelsteering@mail.bccampus.ca>' Subject: RE: BC Library Conference session on OER Oh! Can you tell me who you had from KPU (sorry – can’t seem to find proposal at a quick glance and can’t remember who the 7 are)? I suspect they probably want to see Rajiv again which I could try to arrange if he wasn’t on your original submission. We had Gill present on his use of open ed in his courses – it was a practical approach that was really well received here. I think librarians would benefit from that presentation so I’m glad to see that BCLA is interested in hearing from him.

I got sidetracked Friday afternoon and didn’t actually get my request for feedback sent to BCLA. However, I just received the message below. It appears selection committee is interested in the session proposal, but there are a couple of changes they would like to see. -Martin From: Martin Warkentin Sent: January-16-17 1:54 PM To: 'BCLA Executive Director' Subject: RE: BC Library Conference session on OER Annette, Thank you for your comments. As this was a collective proposal, I will forward your message to the other BCOEL steering committee members, and we will discuss how best to make the suggested changes. We will let you know as soon as possible. Thank you again. -Martin Martin Warkentin Copyright Librarian University of the Fraser Valley 33844 King Road, Abbotsford, BC Canada V2S 7M8 (604) 504-7441 Ext. 4460 From: BCLA Executive Director [mailto:execdir@bcla.bc.ca] Sent: January-16-17 1:44 PM To: Martin Warkentin Subject: BC Library Conference session on OER Hi Martin My name is Annette DeFaveri and I’m the Executive Director at BCLA. We recently sent you a “no” email suggesting that we weren’t interested in your proposal for the BC Library Conference. This is not the case. The Session Selection Committee asked that I get hold of you and see if you would be open to two changes in your proposal. We hope you will be, and that we can then go ahead and mount your session as part of the conference program. Your proposal suggests there would be 7 speakers. We work to keep the number of speakers per session to 3, but take four when necessary. Would you be able to mount the session with a maximum of 4 presenters? The other concern voiced in the selection meeting was about KPU. Several committee members suggested that KPU leads the province in open education adoption and has a strong history with Open Ed. With that in mind they wondered if KPU should be more heavily represented on the panel. Overall the committee was very pleased to receive your session proposal and think the topic is valuable to both the BC Library conference specifically and to the learning in the BC library environment generally. The format for the session is great, starting with Gill Green and then moving to a panel discussion and we hope you want to keep that approach. Would you consider the tweaks to the session? Or perhaps you have another suggestion? Please let me know and I can (hopefully) move forward and add this session to the 2017 program. Thanks for considering this Martin.
