This document summarizes a presentation about open tools and open pedagogy in education. It defines open educational resources as educational materials that are freely available in the public domain or with an open license, allowing anyone to legally copy, use, adapt and share them. Open pedagogy is described as teaching and learning practices that are enabled by the free access and permissions of open educational resources. The document discusses the history of the open web in driving distance learning in the 1990s and explores issues around data collection and use by educational technology companies.
Open Technology - The 3rd Pillar of Open EducationClint Lalonde
Presentation to KPU March 30, 2017 for Open Education Week.
The Open Education movement has gained a great deal of traction in the 10 years since the groundbreaking 2007 Capetown Declaration on Open Education, due largely in part to the increasing acceptance and use of Open Educational Resources (OER), like open textbooks. Recently, a second wave of open educators have begun to emphasize the importance of a new emerging pedagogical model enabled by open education, referred to as open pedagogy.
In addition to OER and open pedagogy, a third pillar of the open education movement revolves around the importance of open technologies. The 2007 Capetown Declaration sates that, "open education is not limited to just open educational resources. It also draws upon open technologies that facilitate collaborative, flexible learning and the open sharing of teaching practices that empower educators to benefit from the best ideas of their colleagues."
In British Columbia, a small ad hoc group of educators known as the BC Open EdTech Collaborative has been quietly experimenting with different open technologies that have the potential to support open education practices, and with different models to be able to support users of open education technologies.
In this session, Clint Lalonde will talk about the connection between open education and open source software, the importance of open technologies to the open education movement, and will demonstrate some of the open education technologies that the BC Open EdTech Collaborative have been exploring.

Presentation given with Clare Brett as part of Master of Teachers Tech Day at OISE, Oct 20 2010.
Abstract: Open Access (OA) and Open Educational Resources (OER's) are terms being increasingly used in educational circles. There are a lot of free, well-designed and interesting curriculum resources out there for the discerning teacher to find and use in their classroom. This workshop will provide a tour of some of the key locations for finding such resources for k-12 teachers, as well as introducing you to the ideas behind Open Access in general, and a discussion of interesting new directions for lifelong professional development, such as the Peer-to-Peer university. The workshop will consist of introducing you to the terms and resources of Open Access as well as small group discussions on strategies and issues about using these resources in your classroom. This will be an interactive session, where your questions are welcome and will guide the kinds of materials we discuss.

But I've Never Taken an Online Course Before!Clint Lalonde
Virtual presentation to the Faculty of Education at the University of Victoria on July 16, 2020. As concerns about COVID continue to impact planning for the fall term, it appears likely that online learning will play a significant role in course delivery. For many instructors, developing and teaching an online course will be a new experience. The same will be true for many incoming students who are now facing the potential that their entire fall term may be delivered in a format that they are unfamiliar with. As their instructor, there are some strategies you can employ that can help alleviate the fears and concerns learners new to online learning may have about taking online courses. In this session, we'll take a look at the student experience taking an online course for the first time. What are some of the common challenges many will face? What kind of impact is COVID having on their learning experience, and what are some practical ways through course design and facilitation that you can help ensure they will be successful learners.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

“Open Educational Resources (OERs)
are any type of educational materials
that are in the public domain or
introduced with an open license. The
nature of these open materials
means that anyone can legally and
freely copy, use, adapt and re-share
them.”
UNESCO
4. Open Pedagogy
Open pedagogy is a set of
teaching and learning practices
only possible in the context of
the free access and 5R (reuse,
revise, remix, redistribute, retain)
permissions characteristic of
open educational resources.
David Wiley (2013)

6. The amazing expansion of websites globally from 1994 to about 2000—was driven by
open access and individuals learning by reading other people's HTML code. The
web growth over those six years is probably the most significant distance
learning program the world has ever seen. One could say it was perhaps
the first “massive open online” learning phenomenon, occurring nearly two decades
before anyone ever heard of the idea of a MOOC (massive open online course).

7. “Open education is not limited to just open
educational resources. It also draws upon
open technologies that facilitate
collaborative, flexible learning and the open
sharing of teaching practices that empower
educators to benefit from the best ideas of
their colleagues.”

9. “The amount of data being collected is staggering. Ed tech
companies of all sizes, from basement startups to global
conglomerates, have jumped into the game. The most adept are
scooping up as many as 10 million unique data points on each child,

“Much of this data exists in software silos that are disconnected. But more and more, companies are
starting to push for the aggregation of student data into analytics tools that can be sold in turn back to the
school. Learning management system log-ins and duration of their LMS sessions. Blog and forum comment
history. Internet usage while on campus. Emails sent and received on via university email accounts. The
pages students read in digital textbooks. The passages they highlight.”

It is built on the belief that everyone should have the freedom to use, customize, improve and redistribute educational resources without constraint.
Even more important than 10 years ago business models for ownership of software changes
Technology enables Open – OER, OP require technology (specifically internet)
Tech reduce the cost of copying and distribution to almost nothing
No proprietary software or files -Defeats purpose to have free open OER if costs $$$ to use them
Reason we chose Pressbooks for OTB – source files can be used with other PB
Require tech knowledge
Tech – become more restrictive more proprietary – ownership vs leasing
Second reason we are interested is in supporting open pedagogy models of teaching & learning – engaging with the world as a pedagogical model
Hard to do with traditional LMS where it is very difficult to conduct teaching and learning on the web in the open
RRU Elizabeth Child “Students will gain and maintain their own WordPress site throughout the program, allowing them to take an active and participatory role in the wider education community.”
The RRU Teaching and Learning Model speaks to authentic experiential and inquiry-based learning, outcomes-based learning, enhanced learning through technology so when we lined these characteristics up with principles of openness and open pedagogy broadly defined there was a direct dovetail.
Often challenge for IT departments (rightly so) to work outside of the box on projects like these
EdTech companies collecting massive amounts of data on our students.
Knewton (adaptive learning platform) collects over a million pieces of data about students using their cloud-based system.
VitalSource has a reading platform that tracks how a student interacts with ebooks – use to improve their ebooks, which you can argue helps improve the books. It also doesn’t hurt that it helps the bottom line of VitalSource.

Good arguments about students having control over this data.
We as institutions should be making sure that student learning data is protected – it is the law (as stewards of student data)
One of the easiest ways to maintain control over data is by choosing applications that we can host ourselves and control ourselves

Candace Till – pioneer found Open Learning Initiative Carnegie-Mellon
Says learning analytics and using data to help students is reality and educators should have more control. Gets to core of what higher ed is about – teaching & learning and “a core tenet of any business is that you don't outsource your core business process.“
“…professors and higher-education leaders are making a dangerous mistake by letting companies take the lead in shaping the learning-analytics market. When companies lead the development of learning software, the decisions these systems make are hidden from professors and colleges.
Ms. Thille says companies that won't share their processes are essentially saying, "Just trust the black box." For most academics, she says, "that's alchemy, that's not science.“
