SUMMARY:Science Education for a Just and Sustainable World
DESCRIPTION:March 2-6\, 2026 marks Open Education Week and UN SDG Action and Awareness Week. Join BCcampus\, the BC Open Education Librarians\, University Canada West\, and Langara College for a celebration of both of these events with keynote speaker Dr. Karen Cangialosi. \n  \nAs global social and environmental problems grow ever more intractable\, we need transformative pedagogies that support our students to become critical\, creative social agents capable of building a more sustainable and just world. \nOpen Pedagogy has the potential to shift our traditional modes of teaching and learning towards practices that nurture students to be creators of knowledge focused on the global good. These hopes could be realized if we are responsive to the dual upheavals caused by AI and the attacks on higher education. We can educate our STEM students to become scientists\, and all of our students\, to become citizens that are cognizant of an uncertain and challenging future\, and work from non-traditional frameworks–those that resist competitive\, hierarchical\, exploitative models of science. \nKey to achieving this vision is teaching undergraduates how to center Open Science as the default for how science is practiced by deeply integrating Open Pedagogical practices that support students to address inherent inequities\, problems with data-sharing\, and other barriers to the adoption of Open Science. To that end\, the OCTOPUS project was developed to support higher education faculty and staff to create openly licensed materials that may eventually constitute a comprehensive undergraduate Open Science-Open Pedagogy program. \n  \nSpeaker bio\nDr. Karen Cangialosi is a passionate change agent\, dedicated educator\, and student advocate with national recognition in open education\, STEM ed\, and digital pedagogy. As a Professor of Biology at Keene State College (now emeritus)\, she brought open education into the biology curriculum and led campus-wide initiatives to make science education more affordable and inclusive. She now serves as Director of Open Education & Open Science at the RIOS Institute which promotes racial justice and openness in STEM education. Her work centers on transforming higher ed systems to better serve students\, especially marginalized students. Her Educause article\, An AI-Driven Optimism for Transforming Higher Education (It’s Not What You Think) considers the juxtaposition of AI in education. She continues to advocate for integrating Open Science and Open Education to reimagine how we teach\, learn\, and collaborate in STEM\, always with a focus on transparency\, justice\, and meaningful change. To that end\, she is project director for the OCTOPUS project (Open Collaboration for Transformative Open Pedagogy to support Undergraduate Open Science Education) a collaborative effort between the BioQUEST Curriculum Consortium and the RIOS Institute.

SUMMARY:Be the change you want to see: Applications of Seamless learning. Research projects from the International Research Network for Innovative Sustainable and Seamless Education (IRN-ISSE)
DESCRIPTION:The International Research Network for Innovative Sustainable and Seamless Education (IRN-ISSE) is a global research partnership that began at mLearn 2018 at Concordia University in Chicago. The vision of IRN-ISSE is to build an international community of practice\, inviting researchers and specialists to collaborate for the greater good\, with a specific focus on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4): “ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.” The mission of IRN-ISSE is to study\, support\, inform\, share\, and implement research globally to improve access to and quality of education worldwide. The goal is to stand together and learn with and from each other\, striving to remain at the forefront of innovative\, sustainable\, and seamless educational practice \nThe community has a global reach\, including Africa\, Asia\, Europe\, North America\, South America\, and India. The partnership is working on several initiatives\, such as: \n\nThe Seamless Learning Experience Design Model\, which identifies five themes relevant to designing a seamless learning experience: 1) seamless learning concepts\, 2) positive concepts\, 3) practical concepts\, 4) human concepts\, and 5) design concepts. Based on these five concepts\, a Seamless Learning Experience Design (SLED) framework was developed.\nResearch and ongoing work include the “Be the change to see the change” (this was the theme for interviews and larger podcasts) initiative\, and on-demand\, driven learning.\n\nWhat you can expect: \nDuring this webinar\, you will meet some of the partners in IRN-ISSE. You will hear about their research and ongoing initiatives. You will have the opportunity to discuss with the team and the audience the interesting changes in education\, including those brought about by the AI era. You will also learn how you can become involved in the IRN-ISSE partnership. \n  \nSpeakers: \n\nHelga Hambrock.
