OEP and open pedagogy: #OEGlobal reflections
by catherinecronin
__#OEORangers @eCampusOntario #OEOSummit @BCcampus #OER __ Catherine Cronin, OEP Open Pedagogy, #OEGlobal _
_ This post is a summary of some my reflections following the 3-day OE Global conference, particularly with respect to OEP and open pedagogy.
OEP and open pedagogy
For some time now I’ve been paying attention not just to the nature of the work being done by many in the global open education community, but also to differences in emphasis across different sectors and regions. For example, much foundational work in open textbooks is rooted in and continues in North America (e.g. BCcampus Open Textbook project and Z-Degree programmes). More recently, a flourishing movement has emerged around open pedagogy (check out #openped) led by innovative educators such as Robin deRosa, Karen Cangialosi, Scott Robison, Rajiv Jhangiani, David Wiley, and others.

__The Problem With Facts by Tim Harford . . . But Curiosity Is the Cure for Misinformation by Michael Caulfield _ https://lnkd.in/eawi96n _ _ https://lnkd.in/e33HZDG _
Tim Hartford : We journalists and policy wonks can’t force anyone to pay attention to the facts. We have to find a way to make people want to seek them out. Curiosity is the seed from which sensible democratic decisions can grow. It seems to be one of the only cures for politically motivated reasoning but it’s also, into the bargain, the cure for a society where most people just don’t pay attention to the news because they find it boring or confusing.
Michael Caulfield : But this is what wiki does, as opposed to blogging. It puts you in a learning mode vs. an argumentative mode. You can feel it when it happens, physically, when it lets down the rhetorical defenses you’ve set up. Ward used to call it Egoless Wiki. When people let down defenses enough to get there, to delight in the investigation more than the result, that’s when you’re in the zone. And I think it correlates with Tim’s point — that to have truth win we can’t fight for truth — we have to fight for curiosity and a bit of egolessness. We have to ask people not to argue their point, but to tell us what they know. In the end that’s the only thing that that’s going to save us.

I’m very happy to have one of my collages featured (alongside some of my favourite artists) in Terry Hemphill’s article on “Illustration Styles of the Past 30 Years” in this week’s issue of Adobe Create Magazine. Thanks Terry and Terri Stone
Congrats, Louis! Coincidentally, this very evening I had taken some 30-year-old issues of ‘Studio’ Magazine (Canada’s late graphic arts mag) out of storage. Great to remember those times, and to live through the early days of digital art – so exciting to see what a top traditionally-trained designer could do with it. And wonderful to see you continue to be (deservedly) recognized.

__ Patrick McCray gave a talk titled “Re-Wiring Art & Technology in the 1960s” based on the research he is conducting for a forthcoming book. During the 1960s, artists and engineers came together in a series of formal collaborations. Besides creating interesting artistic works, these efforts also built an infrastructure for future art & technology collaborations and helped forge a new creative culture. _

__At Montreal’s Concordia University, [-] poets realized that the Centre for Expanded Poetics had been scanning their books and posting them to its web page without their permission. “I find it distressing,” said Alana Wilcox, editorial director at Toronto’s Coach House Books, the publisher of two of the books. “Poets make so little money … making their work available for free on a public website feels very disrespectful. … These aren’t tenured professors with salaries; these are poets who are scraping by, getting no compensation for their hard work.” __

NM: You guys acquired WebAssign, can you tell me a little more about that? What drove that decision and what you guys hope to get out of it? [-] WebAssign had spotted another very interesting collaboration with OpenStax, which is a provider of open educational resources. They basically go out and curate resources that are available for free on the internet. They have developed a product together with OpenStax and that was something that we see is a significant opportunity for us as well. Because we believe that open educational resources are a part of the landscape in education right, and for some it’s actually very appropriate to have open educational resources as part of the digital solution.

__Hall Davidson, Senior Director, Global Learning Initiatives, Discovery Education who speaks frequently on the topics of VR and AR, said the results for teaching can be “astonishing.” He pointed to Lockheed Martin’s “Generation Beyond” initiative, powered by Discovery Ed, which takes classrooms on online field trips to learn about deep space exploration.”[-] “students could also be put into scenarios where they’re allowed to perform physical activities in virtual formats to begin building “muscle memory” that carries over into real life. That’s why the use of VR in sports and military training has become so popular.” __

__”The importance of customer experience is highlighted in a survey just released by Accelent Consulting. The survey, released in January 2017, finds that the top three drivers of digital marketing agility (the ability to react quickly and effectively to customers and issues on the ground) are 1) enhancing the customer experience, 2) improving competitive position, and 3) increasing sales. (Yes, increasing sales came in third.) Furthermore, Accelent found that, among B2B customers, enhancing the customer experience is almost twice as important as increasing sales.” _

__Welcome BCcampus to eCampusOntario on Mar 27 #OEOSummit speaker series with David Wiley, Robin DeRosa, Dr. Rajiv Jhangiani, Amanda Coolidge, Clint Lalonde, Rebus Open Textbook Community and CC friends _ http://onoersummit.com/
__eCampusOntario has entered into an agreement with BCcampus, British Columbia’s online learning agency. We will “clone and rebrand for Ontario” the existing open textbook site operating in British Columbia to provide a starter library and deployment system that will house over 150 peer-reviewed open textbooks. Along with the open textbook library, Ontario higher education users will also be able to participate in the peer review system. The initial cloned system will be available in May 2017. __ eCampusOntario is seeking expressions of interest from Ontario post-secondary institutions to design and assemble a prototype open education publishing infrastructure to provide system capacity and support a growing network of Ontario faculty and instructional developers who will begin to design, develop and deploy interactive open educational resources (OER) for teaching and learning __ https://www.ecampusontario.ca/App_Content/Resource/docs/2e42dfa1-457a-44e4-87cb-1bbaeedeba15/eCO%20EOI%20Open%20Publishing%20Infrastructure%20EN.pdf
