FW: [Canadaoer] OpenEd Week 2022 - Collaborative Sessions

by Rosario Passos

Hi there fellow Open Educators, If any of you is interested in collaborating with Krista from U of Alberta on an event for Open Education Week 2022, get in touch with her: ___________________________________________________________________ Hello Everyone! I'm starting to plan a schedule of events for the University of Alberta's Open Education Symposium. It will be a series of events throughout Open Education Week (Mar 7-11, 2022). I'm looking to do some collaborative sessions with other institutions. The University of Alberta would handle the registration, Zoom hosting, facilitation support, and edit/post the recording. I would ask that we do a joint-introduction to the session and you are welcome to put the registration and zoom on your institution's website, if you wish, to promote as a partnership with UofA rather than sending them to the UofA website. So far, we have a series of lunch-hour lightning talks (3-4 presenters in a 1hr session) being planned with University of Alberta, University of Calgary, and Thompson Rivers University. A growing list of topics we would like to deliver include: * Evaluating the quality of open pedagogies * OER speed-dating! * Open EdTech - tools review * open and participatory technologies * Pressbooks, H5P, and using them in class * "Do open pedagogies have to be either open or closed? What is in the middle?" * ZTC - common barriers when implementing (course-level) * Universal design, OER, and course design * Demo: How to change your course to incorporate OER If you're interested in collaborating, I would love to hear from you! Thanks, -- Krysta McNutt, PMP (she/her<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mypro…>) Open Education Lead, Centre for Teaching and Learning University of Alberta, ᐊᒥᐢᑿᒌᐚᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ (Amiskwacîwâskahikan), Treaty 6/Métis Homelands krystam(a)ualberta.ca<mailto:krystam@ualberta.ca> | 780-710-5674 | Subscribe to CTL's Monthly Newsletter<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fualberta.…>

FW: Open Education Policy Forum

by Rosario Passos

Hello fellow open educators. Some of you might be interested in this forum coming up in September. From: Keycontacts <keycontacts-bounces(a)lists.bccampus.ca> On Behalf Of Arianna Cheveldave Sent: August 3, 2021 4:08 PM To: canadaoer(a)lists.bccampus.ca; keycontacts(a)lists.bccampus.ca; bcoel(a)lists.bccampus.ca; allff(a)lists.bccampus.ca Subject: [Keycontacts] Open Education Policy Forum CAUTION: This email originated from outside of BCIT. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. 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://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fforms.gle…> 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://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcentrumcy…>.
