French Edition?? (was: Cross-Canada Collaboration on Soil Science Book)

by Enkerli, Alexandre

Like Amanda said, congratulations on this great example of collaboration. What really gets me, though, is the mention of work on a French edition! “Relevant to my interests.” Would it be possible to put us in touch with people involved on the Francophone side? I’m sure Lise Brin and Lucie Vincent-LeBlanc are already aware of this work. Just hope we can build bridges with ongoing efforts, here in Quebec. Again, congratulations… And thanks for sharing! --Alex [Collecto - Services regroupés en éducation]<http://collecto.ca/> Alexandre Enkerli Conseiller technopédagogique • Accompagnement et innovation en pédagogie numérique T 514 384-9272 F 514 381-2263 collecto.ca<http://collecto.ca/> Actualités<http://collecto.ca/actualites> | LinkedIn<https://www.linkedin.com/company/collecto/> 👉 PRENDRE UN RENDEZ-VOUS<https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/Collecto1@collecto.ca/bookings/> HORAIRE D’ÉTÉ | Du 11 juin au 13 août 2021 inclusivement, notre équipe termine sa journée à 12 h les vendredis.

Open Education Policy Forum

by Arianna Cheveldave

Dear colleagues, This message is sent on behalf of Anahita Rezaei, Open Education & Advocacy Specialist, Centrum Cyfrowe. Open Education Policy Forum is coming back on September 15-16 for the sixth time (and online, too). We are looking forward to seeing you at the end of the summer to discuss the “Universe of Openness,” but today, we are excited to announce an Open Call for two key events that will be held during the Forum: * Lightning talks – presentation of the most inspiring Open Education initiatives from the time of the pandemic [September 15]. In the tradition of exchanging the best practices from Open Education, we’re seeking inspiring initiatives. Have you completed a project or started an inspirational initiative within OE Policy in the past year and are you willing to share it with the Open Education community? If so, we’re looking for you! You’ll have up to 7 minutes to present your project to the world. * Workshops for policy makers and OE activists [September 16]. In small groups of up to 15 participants, where every person can be heard and bring their unique perspective and experience, we want to talk about the future of Open Education. Our goal is to create realistic and achievable guidelines for the OE community in three areas: * Designing the future of open education policy based on know-how and good practices * New concepts & perspectives for the study on copyright for education * Open Education for Green & Climate Education Key dates Deadline for submission to lightning talks and workshops: August 15 Publication of results: August 17 Registration<https://forms.gle/7FhKmAR4qWeHFnAZ7> About the Forum. Open Education Policy Forum is an international conference organised by Centrum Cyfrowe Foundation in cooperation with Communia Association, Hewlett Foundation, Intellectual Property Institute, OEGlobal, Otwarte Zasoby and SPARC Europe. Once a year, we bring together stakeholders (activists, researchers, teachers, policy makers) from around the world to exchange good practices and discuss challenges and opportunities faced by the Open Education community. We want to provide an opportunity for networking, exchange of knowledge and future collaborations. “The Universe of Openness” – about the upcoming edition of the Forum. Open Education initiatives have been expanding extraordinarily since 2020. Resources, institutions and infrastructure built on the OE model provide resilience to educational systems at the beginning of remote education. The pandemic time has redefined “openness” in education. Now, with so many various projects in progress, we want to ask the following: how can the OE community maintain this growth? And how can we expand, explore and improve it in the upcoming future? The conference will open with the premiere of a new pan-European study “Remote education during the pandemic: teachers perspective” conducted by Centrum Cyfrowe Foundation and Communia Association. For more information, visit the Open Education Policy Forum 2021 website<https://centrumcyfrowe.pl/forum2021/>.

Criminology - Call for Authors

by Krista Lambert

Dear all, I’m writing on behalf of faculty member Shereen Hassan at Kwantlen Polytechnic University in British Columbia. Dr. Hassan is looking for a contributor to author a chapter in a much-anticipated, Canada-focused, Introduction to Criminology openly-licensed textbook. The chapter that requires an author is: 1. Media and Crime 2. Please see Dr. Hassan’s letter below and circulate this Call for Authors widely. This is a paid opportunity and would come with a $500 honorarium. If interested, or you would like more please reach out to Dr. Shereen Hassan at shereen.hassan(a)kpu.ca by Wednesday, July 7, 2021. -- I hope that this email finds you well. My name is Dr. Shereen Hassan and I am an SFU criminology alumni. I completed my PhD under the supervision of Dr. Simon Verdun-Jones in 2010. I am now a faculty member at Kwantlen Polytechnic University in the Criminology department and have been here for almost 17 years. I am reaching out about an opportunity to contribute to an Open Education Resource for the Introduction to Criminology course. This text will be the first of its kind in Canadian Criminology and is unique as it seeks to incorporate Indigenous knowledge, history and content in a way that Criminology texts to date have failed to do. There are authors from several universities, including Simon Fraser University, the University of the Fraser Valley, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, the University of Winnipeg, as well as other institutions in B.C. and elsewhere, so it's quite a collaborative effort! I am still looking for authors in the area of Media and Crime. We are flexible on deadlines, and we are hoping to have a draft by the end of summer. This text is an introductory text, so the idea here is to provide a brief overview, but to also address how theories and principles in this area of research relate to Indigenous principles, Indigenous peoples, and/or Indigenous issues in some way, wherever possible. We have asked authors to keep the chapters short (approximately 4000 words) or as close to that as possible. It would be a wonderful honour to have you contribute to this important project. I look forward to hearing back from you. All the best, Shereen Hassan, PhD Criminology Faculty Kwantlen Polytechnic University Krista Lambert, MEd Project Manager, Health & ABE ZTC Programs Cell: 604.512.4365<tel:604.512.4365> • Email: klambert(a)bccampus.ca<mailto:klambert@bccampus.ca> Twitter: @contentkrista<https://twitter.com/contentkrista> • Pronouns: She/her Learning.
