Hi everyone,
Instead of focusing our energy all in one week, we are spreading our Open Education Week 2025 events and workshops throughout the month of March. We’re kicking things off early tomorrow with an info session on our UN SDG Open Pedagogy Fellowship.
We have workshops planned on finding and creating OERs, using Pressbooks, and how to engage in Open Pedagogy. The BC Open Education Librarians (BCOEL) group is co-hosting an event on practicing reciprocal values in challenging times, and we have gathered 2 KPU faculty members who are using Generative AI for Open Education who will be sharing their experiences in a panel event (see image below).
The full schedule of our OE Events is in the attached poster and you can visit our Events and Workshops<https://www.kpu.ca/open/events-workshops> page to see full descriptions and access registration links.
Happy Open Education Week!
Amanda

Hi everyone!
The OEN is running their Open Pedagogy Learning Circle, and applications are now open for the next round. I did this myself the first time that it ran and it was a really good experience.
____________________
Greetings, OEN Community!
Please consider applying for the spring offering of our facilitated Open Pedagogy Learning Circle! The OEN has heard our community ask for more help understanding and using open pedagogy, so we’ve created a collaborative, resource-rich learning environment over the course of seven synchronous, one-hour sessions this spring. Join our virtual, facilitated Learning Circle to share, learn, discuss, and create open pedagogy! There is no cost for participation.
We are looking for a total of 12 participants from OEN member institutions for this offering of Open Pedagogy Learning Circle running on Tuesdays beginning in February.
We try to vary the enrollment, so we are hoping for a combination of instructors, librarians, instructional designers or other roles that directly support faculty in pedagogy-related concerns. Interested in learning more and applying? Please see our Call for Applications<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UH9gqpa11MZdY33JRmVuoedMcFCYmpQzimN8Wmt…> or reach out to Tanya Grosz (grosz045(a)umn.edu<mailto:grosz045@umn.edu>) with any questions.

Hello and Happy New Year!
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to invite you to join a pool of peer reviewers for the University of Leeds Open Books initiative. This programme aims to create high-quality, openly licensed textbooks that are freely available to everyone, supporting equitable access to education and fostering a culture of knowledge-sharing for ‘knowledge for all’.
We welcome the involvement of faculty members as well as learning technologists, OER professionals, pedagogy experts etc. to join our peer reviewer pool.
Peer reviewers will be fully acknowledged in the publications they contribute to.
Participation would likely involve reviewing one book, with the expected timeline being toward the end of 2025.
You can find out more about the initiative here: University of Leeds Open Books Blog Post<https://leedsunilibrary.wordpress.com/2024/12/17/launching-university-of-le…>.
Please don’t hesitate to let me know if you have any questions - I’d be delighted to discuss further.
I’d be grateful if you could share with educators to see if anyone is interested in being a peer reviewer with published acknowledgement.
Thank you so much!
Best regards,
Kirstine

Apply for the Certificate in Open Pedagogy (formerly Open Educational Practices) through the Open Education Network
The Open Education Network is accepting applications for faculty and faculty partners (librarians, instructional designers, etc.) to receive a certification in open pedagogy. Applicants should be higher education faculty, librarians, instructional designers, and others who have a lesson, unit, or other educational experience that they wish to transform through the use of open pedagogy. Participants will pilot their transformed curriculum in the spring of 2025. The Certificate in Open Pedagogy offers formal training in open pedagogy as grounded in the principles of social justice, a community of peers, and expert instructors in order to transform learning to be more accessible and inclusive. Participants who successfully complete the full program will receive a Certificate in Open Pedagogy from the Open Education Network (University of Minnesota) and 60 Credit Hour Units (CEU's). While we prefer applicants who apply as a team (faculty + partner), we will do our best to pair individuals who do not have someone with whom to partner.
About the Certificate in Open Pedagogy
The Certificate in Open Pedagogy is a professional development program that will create actionable pathways for faculty and librarians to implement open education for the transformation of learning.
Faculty and partners (librarians, instructional designers, etc.) will complete a nine-week long, asynchronous course in the spring of 2025 about the range of open educational practices with modules on the hallmarks of open education, copyright and Creative Commons licensing, the hallmarks of open pedagogy, the benefits and limitations of OEP, accessibility, and student empowerment and agency. Together, the faculty and faculty partner pairs will create an Action Plan to be implemented the following spring that seeks to transform learning through the power of open education.
In addition, the cohort will benefit from close engagement with program faculty—open education leaders who have gained expertise through experience, professional development, and participation in various national initiatives.
The integrated components of the certification program include online content, instructor-led cohorts, and action plan support and assessment.
In order to assure we can offer personalized attention to participants throughout the program, the cohort will be limited to 20 teams (5 teams per instructor) or 50 participants total.
Learning Outcomes
Participants will:
1. Gain fluency in open pedagogy, including core benefits, challenges, and potential;
2. Identify the synergy between the principles of social justice and open education;
3. Create a personalized action plan that will provide the building blocks for an educational experience (module, lesson, unit, etc.) to be transformed through the use of open pedagogy;
4. Consider best practices of accessibility when designing the action plan
5. Center the needs of students and consider their empowerment and agency while designing and implementing the action plan;
6. Develop strategies for assessing the effectiveness of the action plan;
7. Connect and collaborate with a cohort of higher ed. professionals dedicated to developing open education in order to create more accessible, inclusive learning.
Selection Criteria
Participants will be selected based on the following:
1. A CV demonstrating your responsibilities as a faculty member or librarian;
2. A completed questionnaire that provides information about you and your institution;
3. A clearly articulated interest in open education and desire to make learning more equitable and inclusive through the power of open education;
4. A desire to revise curriculum or support the revision of curriculum through open pedagogy and the demonstrated agency to do so.
Certificate Calendar
January 5 - March 9, 2025: Participants will participate in asynchronous online instruction, including readings and discussions with their cohorts.
April 9 & 10: Project Symposium for participants to share the OEP Action Plan they developed and refined throughout the online course. Online course assessment will be shared.
Fall 2025: Participants will implement their OEP projects. One or more synchronous calls with cohorts will be planned for participants to share questions, reflections, and encouragement as they implement their action plans with their librarian partner while receiving instructional support.
End of fall 2025: Program assessment by participants is planned.

Dear colleagues,
Do you teach online? Do you use open pedagogy in those classes? Do you use open pedagogy in those classes to support social justice?
If so, you may be interested in participating in a study about experiences of online KPU faculty in using open pedagogy to support social justice.
The principal investigator, Melissa Ashman, is a faculty member in the Melville School of Business at KPU, and she is conducting this study in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education at Athabasca University.
If you are interested in participating in this study, please email melissa.ashman(a)kpu.ca saying “I agree to participate in this study” (or something similar). This will indicate you have read the description of the study below, accept the invitation to participate in the study, and agree to the terms as described.
Project title: Online faculty experiences using open pedagogy to support social justice Project Principal Investigator: Melissa Ashman
Athabasca University REB file number: 25806
Kwantlen Polytechnic University REB file number: 2024-24
Study participants. This study explores the experiences of KPU faculty who teach online classes using open pedagogy to support social justice. Therefore, to participate, you:
* must be currently employed as a faculty member in any discipline at KPU
* may be employed at KPU part-time or full-time
* may be employed at KPU with a short-term contract (non-regular type 1), a long-term contract (non-regular type 2), or may have permanent status (regularized)
* must be currently teaching one or more online classes in which you use open pedagogy to support social justice, and/or may have taught in one or more online classes in the past where you used open pedagogy to support social justice, and/or may be scheduled to teach in one or more online classes in an upcoming semester where you will use open pedagogy to support social justice
For the purposes of this study:
* Online courses can include courses that are synchronous, asynchronous, blended, or that are otherwise mediated through an internet connection.
* Open pedagogy can include (but is not limited to) students creating or co-creating open resources, open content, H5P resources, or open textbooks; creating resources for a community or client; creating teachable content or resources for students; blogging; podcasting; or creating or co-creating a rubric.
Study description. Participating in this study will involve being interviewed twice by the principal investigator. The interviews will be private/one-on-one and will be held virtually through MS Teams. Each interview is anticipated to require a time commitment of 60-90 minutes (2-3 hours total), and each interview will be recorded and then transcribed. The interviews will collect information about your experiences using open pedagogy in online courses to support social justice. The principal investigator will work with each study participant to determine the interview days/times.
Voluntary participation. Your participation in this research project is completely voluntary. Refusal to participate in this study will not impact our relationship as colleagues.
Full withdrawal of consent. If you choose to withdraw from an interview in full, any information you have shared in that interview will be deleted and will not used in the analysis of the data. You can inform the researcher of your full withdrawal either verbally or by sending an email. You can fully withdraw consent for the first interview at any time until you have reviewed the first interview transcript. This will be scheduled to take place at the beginning of the second interview. However, should you wish to not participate in a second interview or are otherwise unavailable to participate in a second interview, you will have one week from the date the researcher provides you with a digital copy of your first interview transcript to withdraw your full consent. No response to a request to review your first interview transcript will be assumed to indicate consent remains intact and in full. Full withdrawal from the second interview is possible only until one week from the date the researcher provides you with a digital copy of your second interview transcript for review. No response to a request to review your second interview transcript will be assumed to indicate consent remains intact and in full.
Partial withdrawal of consent. After each interview, you will have an opportunity to review the transcript to see if there are any portions you withdraw consent from being included. If you choose to withdraw one or more portions of your interviews, any information that is being withdrawn will be deleted and will not used in the analysis of the data. You can inform the researcher which portions you withdraw either verbally or by sending an email. Partial withdrawal from the first interview is possible only you have reviewed the first interview transcript. This will be scheduled to take place at the beginning of the second interview. However, should you wish to not participate in a second interview or are otherwise unavailable to participate in a second interview, you will have one week from the date the researcher provides you with a digital copy of your first interview transcript to partially withdraw your consent. No response to a request to review your first interview transcript will be assumed to indicate consent remains intact and in full. Partial withdrawal from the second interview is possible only until one week from the date the researcher provides you with a digital copy of your second interview transcript to review. No response to a request to review your second interview transcript will be assumed to indicate consent remains intact and in full.
Risks. There are no known physical risks to participating in this research project. However, because the study is collecting data pertaining to your lived experience, it is possible that sensitive topics could be discussed, potentially resulting in emotional distress. Should this happen, you may find it helpful and supportive to access the free KPU Employee and Family Assistance Program at https://kpuemp.sharepoint.com/sites/hr/benefits/SitePages/Homewood%20Health….<https://kpuemp.sharepoint.com/sites/hr/benefits/SitePages/Homewood%20Health…>
Benefits. KPU faculty members who participate in the study will have the opportunity to share their experiences in using open pedagogy to support social justice in their online classes, and this information could then potentially be used by university administrators to improve support for open pedagogy and social justice. Additionally, participants may have a better understanding of their own teaching practices and positionality, which can potentially help facilitate their own further reflection and professional development as a post-secondary educator.
Compensation. No compensation is provided for participating in this study.
Confidentiality, data retention, and data security. Your privacy and confidentiality will be protected throughout this study. You are encouraged to use headphones and a private space when you are being interviewed. Electronic data collected by the principal investigator will be stored on secure servers located in Canada at Athabasca University and Kwantlen Polytechnic University. Information you provide will be de-identified, anonymous, and kept confidential. During the analysis of the data, pseudonyms will be assigned to the participants, and names of courses, course codes, or other information that could directly or indirectly be used to identify participants will be anonymized and de-identified. The study results will be used, presented, and published by the principal investigator in partial fulfillment of the degree of Doctor of Education at Athabasca University. As well, the anonymized results of this research may be presented at workshops, conferences, and/or in publications.
Data collected in support of this research project will be retained for a period of five years following the completion of the study (anticipated completion: December 2025).
Persons to contact. If you have questions about the study, you may contact:
· the principal investigator, Melissa Ashman, at melissa.ashman(a)kpu.ca
· KPU Research Ethics Board at 604.599.3163 or reb(a)kpu.ca (quoting file number 2024-24)
· Athabasca University Research Ethics Board at 780.213.2033 or rebsec(a)athabascau.ca (quoting file number 25806)
You are welcome to print or save a copy of this consent form for your own records, if you would like.

Link to Resources: Introduction to Consumer Behaviour<https://open.bccampus.ca/browse-our-collection/find-open-textbooks/?uuid=42…> & Ancillary Resource Guide<https://opentextbc.ca/ancillaryconsumerbehaviour/>
This open textbook was designed for students studying business or marketing at an undergraduate level. It draws on the fields of marketing, business, communications, media studies, psychology, sociology, and anthropology. The book invites readers to examine the internal forces that shape consumer decision making, such as perceptions, motivations, personality, and attitudes as well as the external ones, such as social and situational influences, culture, and subcultures. This text centres the lived experiences of today’s consumers, specifically, undergraduate students. The author has also made efforts to decentre whiteness and dominant culture perspectives wherever possible to ensure a broader and more accurate representation of diverse consumers.
This OER contains content created by students from Kwantlen Polytechnic University and is best used alongside the Ancillary Resource Guide<https://opentextbc.ca/ancillaryconsumerbehaviour/> that contains several essays, case studies, assignments, and project outlines, and an accompanying multiple choice test bank.
Best,

I’ve shared this opportunity previously, and the Open Education Network is offering it again. I took part in the Open Pedagogy Learning Circle last year and found it incredibly useful. It was a great experience, and I highly recommend it!
Applications are due September 3.
If you do decide to apply, please let me know. I’m happy to provide any support you need.
Cheers,
Amanda
Please consider applying for the spring offering of our facilitated open pedagogy learning circles!
The OEN has heard our community ask for more help understanding and using open pedagogy, so we’ve created a collaborative, resource-rich learning environment over the course of seven synchronous, one-hour sessions this spring. Join our virtual, facilitated Learning Circle to share, learn, discuss, and create open pedagogy! There is no cost for participation. We are looking for a total of 12 participants from OEN member institutions for this offering of Open Pedagogy Learning Circles. We try to vary the enrollment, so we are hoping for a combination of instructors/faculty, and librarians, instructional designers or other roles that directly support faculty in pedagogy-related concerns.
Takeaways
* Build a foundational understanding of open pedagogy to be expanded upon through activities that allow for a collaborative definition of open pedagogy.
* Discover what open pedagogy does as well as and how it can be incorporated in the classroom through exposure to a variety of engaging open pedagogy assignments.
* Gain hands-on experience with open pedagogy through creation of a renewable assignment or digital learning object.
Facilitator
The Learning Circle on Open Pedagogy will be facilitated by OEN Open Educational Practices Specialist, Jamie Witman, who will also be available for consultations outside of the synchronous sessions to assist you with your questions related to open pedagogy.
Fall 2024 Cohort
We are now accepting applications for 12 participants from OEN member institutions who are interested in learning more about open pedagogy. Applicants should be faculty (Adjuncts/instructors are welcome!) or higher ed. practitioners who directly support faculty (librarians, instructional designers, etc.).
Selection Criteria
Participants will be selected based on the following:
1. Desire to learn more about open pedagogy
2. Commitment to the creation of a renewable assignment/digital learning object
3. Ability to attend and engage in all seven sessions

Hi everyone,
You may have received a direct email from us this morning about this, so apologies for double-posting.
