Subject: KPU's inaugural Open Education Research Institute (May 14, 2020)
On May 14, 2020, KPU will host its inaugural Open Education Research Institute, a one-day training and networking opportunity for scholars across BC post-secondary institutions
who wish to develop or enhance their open education research skills.
The Open Education Research Institute (OERI) is an opportunity for new and emerging researchers interested in open educational practices to deepen their knowledge
and sharpen their skill set while connecting with other researchers and joining a Provincial mentorship network. The one-day institute will begin with an overview of existing research on open educational practices, including a special focus on research conducted
in or by researchers in British Columbia. Participants will learn about different theoretical and methodological frameworks for research in open education and receive guidance on practical issues such as preparing applications for ethical review of their research
projects and publishing their work in open access journals or repositories. Participants will work in affinity groups to draft and revise their research questions and be paired with an experienced researcher, who will serve as their mentor for the following
year.
The OERI is jointly funded by KPU Open Education and BCcampus. While there will be no cost to register for the event, registration is required to plan for catering and other logistics. The OERI has deliberately been scheduled
to take place the day after the Festival of Learning to make it easier for those travelling to the Lower Mainland for that event to participate in the institute.
Date: Thursday, May 14, 2020
Time: 8:30am- 4:30pm, followed by a no-host dinner
Address: KPU Richmond, 8771 Lansdowne Rd, Richmond, BC V6X 3X7
