SUMMARY:Le losange de l’éducation ouverte: un jeu pour discuter et convaincre!
DESCRIPTION:Cet atelier propose une session participative autour du Losange de l’Éducation Ouverte (ÉO)\, un dispositif ludique permettant d’ouvrir la discussion sur les pratiques\, valeurs et enjeux de l’éducation ouverte. Après une courte introduction\, les personnes participantes seront invitées à jouer en sous-groupes afin d’expérimenter directement la dynamique du Losange. \nLa seconde partie de l’atelier sera consacrée au partage d’astuces d’animation\, d’exemples d’adaptation et de retours d’expérience issus de différentes utilisations du jeu dans des formations ou des ateliers. \nL’objectif de cette activité est double : permettre une appropriation concrète du kit et renforcer la communauté de pratique qui l’utilise déjà. Cet atelier s’adresse en priorité à un public déjà familiarisé avec l’éducation ouverte\, souhaitant enrichir ses pratiques d’animation. \nAvec la participation et la collaboration de : Lucie Grasset\, Chargée d’animation de projet\, Chaire Unesco RELIA

SUMMARY:Trent University OER Launch Party: OER? Oh! We Are!
DESCRIPTION:What happens when educators say yes to sharing?\nWhen students say yes to co-creating?\nWhen learning says yes to openness?  \nJoin us for the virtual launch of our new Open Education Resource; a project built on collaboration\, curiosity\, and the belief that learning is deepened when it’s shared.  \nThis won’t be a formal presentation. It’s a call and response experience. It’s an invitation to join a community.  \nWe’ll share the story behind the resource: why we built it\, what problems it hopes to solve\, and how it invites a response. You’ll hear short reflections from contributors\, see inside the resource itself\, and have space to respond: in the chat\, on the mic\, in ideas sparked for your own teaching and learning.  \nCome explore how this resource might liven your courses\, reduce barriers\, and open new pedagogical possibilities. Bring your curiosity. Bring a question. Bring a colleague or a classmate.  \nLet’s launch something and respond to what it becomes.  \nHosted by Terry Greene\, Senior eLearning Designer\, with collaborators Darcy Culp and Najah Wardat.  \nIf you have any questions\, please feel free to reach out to teachingcommons@trentu.ca \nUpdate\nOh! We Are! was definitely launched in this webinar and is available to all at https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/openattrent

SUMMARY:RELCALC 3: histoire d'une REL en mathématiques
DESCRIPTION:Dans cette présentation\, je présenterai le projet RELCALC-3\, une ressource pédagogique libre destinée aux cours de calcul multivariable. Le projet s’inscrit dans une réflexion plus large sur l’accessibilité et l’équité : pour plusieurs étudiantes et étudiants\, le coût des manuels commerciaux constitue un obstacle réel. Il existe aujourd’hui des ressources ouvertes capables d’offrir une qualité comparable\, voire supérieure\, aux ouvrages traditionnels. RELCALC-3 vise ainsi à proposer une alternative complète\, cohérente et durable aux ressources payantes. \nJe décrirai ensuite le choix de la plateforme PreTeXt\, qui permet de produire à partir d’une seule source des versions web\, PDF et interactives. Cette souplesse est rendue possible par un écosystème open source déjà très développé. Mon projet repose sur l’adaptation de matériel existant\, ce qui illustre de belle façon la puissance de la réutilisation et de la mutualisation dans les REL. \nEnfin\, je présenterai les résultats d’un sondage mené auprès des étudiantes et étudiants du cours. Le questionnaire porte notamment sur la facilité d’utilisation\, la qualité perçue\, l’impact sur l’apprentissage et les préférences quant aux ressources pédagogiques. Cette rétroaction contribue à orienter les développements futurs du projet et à mieux comprendre l’appropriation d’une ressource libre dans un cours universitaire. \nAvec la participation et la collaboration de : Juan Carlos Bustamante\, chargé de cours à forfait\, Université de Sherbrooke

SUMMARY:Bridging knowledge gaps through collaboration: Wikimedia in South Africa and the UK
DESCRIPTION:This Knowledge Equity webinar focuses on advancing knowledge equity through Wikimedia initiatives and open education\, with a particular emphasis on South African and UK perspectives. During this session we will explore how collaborative efforts between Wikimedia communities\, Open Education and Open Research networks can: \n• Empower local knowledge creation and representation.\n• Address systemic barriers to access and participation in digital knowledge platforms.\n• Highlight successful models of community engagement\n• Foster cross-regional collaboration to build inclusive\, sustainable knowledge ecosystems. \nThe session will look at practical strategies for increasing the reach of Wikimedia\, the importance of language diversity\, and the ethical dimensions of open knowledge production. We will also reflect on how global partnerships can support local and regional initiatives. \nTuesday 24 March\, 12:00 – 13:00 GMT / 14:00 – 15:00 SAST \n  \nGuest speakers: \nHerschal Jackson is the inaugural Executive Director of Wikimedia South Africa (Wikimedia ZA)\, leading the chapter’s transition toward greater professionalisation of its operation\, strategic growth and the amplification of its presence within the global Wikimedia community. \nPreviously serving as Executive Coordinator of Wikimedia ZA\, he strengthened organisational systems\, advanced program delivery\, and facilitated the 2023 Strategic Planning Meeting. He has played key roles in major initiatives\, including co‑organising WikiIndaba 2024 and leading on SWiP Phase 2\, a multilingual knowledge‑equity project supporting student contributors across South Africa and neighbouring SADC countries\, working in their own languages. \nHerschal was instrumental in guiding the development and ratification of Wikimedia ZA’s 2024–2026 strategy and established governance subcommittees to support its implementation. His leadership continues to shape a resilient\, collaborative\, and future‑focused chapter for Wikimedia ZA. \n— \nLucy Crompton-Reid joined Wikimedia UK as Chief Executive in October 2015\, where she has spearheaded a focus on equity and inclusion on Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects. Lucy leads the charity’s work in advocating for a healthy online information ecosystem\, and promoting Wikimedia as an important tool in the development of vital media and information literacy skills. \nLucy sits on the British Library Advisory Council\, the Board of Advisors for the Khalili Foundation and the External Advisory Board for AI For Collective Intelligence (AI4CI)\, a UKRI National AI Research Hub. She also Chairs the local arts charity where she lives in rural Scotland.

SUMMARY:WordPress in Education: What we teach when we teach WordPress (WPCampus)
DESCRIPTION:Across higher education\, WordPress is used as a publishing tool\, but when we engage with students\, it becomes part of the learning environment. We teach students to use the web to tell their stories. They create portfolios\, publish project sites\, and share digital humanities work. They build professional identities that travel with them beyond a single course or platform. \nAt the same time\, many student-facing initiatives that may utilize WordPress as a tool have a different shared language and vocabulary for what\, exactly\, we’re teaching: Is it web design\, digital writing\, technology literacy\, open pedagogy\, or informational literacy\, or all of the above? In practice\, it is often a mix\, and that makes it worth naming and learning from each other. \nThis online summit\, hosted by WPCampus\, the professional organization for WordPress in Higher Ed\, centers student-facing programs\, both long-standing and emerging. We’ll explore how educators and campus teams are teaching WordPress for authentic public work\, and how newer pathways like the WordPress Credits are reframing WordPress not just as a tool students use\, but an open source ecosystem that students can participate in and contribute to. \nWhy this matters now\n\nWordPress remains a highly used web platform on the open web\, which means “learning WordPress” often doubles as learning the web in a practical\, career relevant way.\nWhat participants will learn\nDefining outcomes: How campuses frame student WordPress initiatives and what they prioritize.\nTeaching models that scale: Mentorship\, peer learning\, and support structures that work across programs.\nPathways beyond the classroom: how student move from course-based projects to portfolios\, community contribution\, and career development.\nOpen source community engagement and sustainability: How student contributions feed into the larger WordPress ecosystem and help sustain open source projects.
