Hello,
I would like to share the following opportunity with you. Please let me know if you have
any questions, or are interested in applying!
Join the Open Education Network’s Facilitated Learning Circle on Open Pedagogy
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.
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.
Facilitators
The Learning Circle on Open Pedagogy will be facilitated by OEN Fellow Amanda Larson,
Affordable Learning Instructional Consultant for The Ohio State University. OEN Open
Educational Practices Specialist, Jamie Witman, will be available for 30-minute
consultations outside of the synchronous sessions to assist you with your questions
related to open pedagogy.
Spring 2023 Cohort
We are now accepting applications for a cohort of 12-18 faculty and faculty partners from
OEN member institutions who are interested in learning more about open pedagogy.
Applicants should be faculty (Adjuncts/instructors are welcome!) who want help
transforming a disposable assignment into a renewable one. We also welcome faculty
partners (librarians, instructional designers, Center for Teaching and Learning staff,
etc.) interested in creating a digital learning object to illustrate open pedagogy to
their faculty. Please pass this opportunity along to interested faculty/instructors!
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
4. Willingness to give feedback about the Learning Circle experience
Session Overview and Timeline
The Learning Circle experience will span seven one-hour sessions and be conducted
synchronously on Zoom.
