EDI-Focused Adaption of an Intro to Psychology Textbook – A Panel
2024-03-04 12:00 - 12:50 (America/Vancouver) | Justice Institute of BC, 715 McBride Boulevard, New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada
Have you ever thought, “if only this open textbook included more diverse examples?” or “I wish this book was easier for my students to read.” The BCcampus Intro to Psychology open textbook EDI adaptation is trying to address these issues and more!
This project adapted one of the most highly adopted open textbooks in BC to include more:

Indigenous content,
diverse examples,
underrepresented scholars, and
student contributions.

The team comprises contributors from across 5 post-secondaries in BC, including a group of student illustrators tasked with bringing complex ideas and examples to life through graphics.
In this panel, four of the team members will discuss:

What does an EDI adaptation mean or look like?
What was the process of finding and incorporating marginalized voices, including Indigenous content?
What have been some of the design and content considerations?
How have students been engaged in the project?
How does one build a cross-institutional team?
What lessons have been learned? And what are some of the wins and successes?

2024-03-04 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Denver) | University of Northern Colorado, 406 Dunne Dr., Greeley, CO, United States
Despite the transformative potential of higher education, it still too often reinforces existing societal power hierarchies. As critical educators, our focus should extend beyond the use of teaching practices that are effective and engaging and encompass the intentional design of learning environments that are inclusive, antiracist, and just.
Join Dr. Rajiv Jhangiani in this Zoom session as he draws on insights from scholarship and practice in critical pedagogy, inclusive design, and open educational practices to share practical strategies through which social justice may be centered in teaching and learning.

Accessibility in Open Education with H5P
2024-03-05 11:00 - 12:00 (Australia/Sydney) | University of Technology Sydney, Sydney, Australia
We continue to celebrate Open Education Week at our second event focussed on Accessibility and H5P in open resources. During this event, we will be hearing from two fantastic speakers from Australia and Canada. They will share their experiences working on open resources and how to make them accessible and interactive through H5P and Pressbooks.
During this event, we will:

explore why accessibility and inclusion are so important to openness,
discuss why H5P has been adopted for Open Textbooks,
outline some of the affordances and barriers to accessibility and openness with H5P,
explain why taking openness as an attitude is important to accessible resources.

Key speaker: Nikki Andersen
Nikki Andersen, Open Education Content Librarian at the University of Southern Queensland (UniSQ), champions open educational practices, specializing in open textbooks via the Pressbooks platform. With a diverse background, including roles as a Copyright Officer and Diversity and Inclusion Officer, Nikki edits the Australasian Open Educational Practice Digest. She contributes to CAUL’s Open Educational Resources Professional Development Program Project Team and ASCILITE’s Open Educational Practice Special Interest Group.
Nikki, who identifies as disabled and Deaf, advocates for inclusion, diversity, equity and accessibility (IDEA), recognized by awards for creating accessible digital learning environments. Her work intersects open educational practice, social justice, and student success, highlighted by her editing of the 2022 Australian Edition of Enhancing IDEA in OER.

Key Speaker: Simon Lolliot
Dr. Simon Lolliot, Associate Professor at the University of British Columbia, earned his doctorate in social psychology at the University of Oxford as a Rhodes scholar. His research focuses on the role of intergroup contact in reconciliation and the impact of secondary transfer effect, “a phenomenon whereby contact with members from one outgroup not only improve attitudes towards that outgroup, but to other outgroups as well.” At UBC, he collaborates with Drs. Toni Schmader and Andrew Baron, exploring ingroup identity, multiculturalism, and diversity beliefs.
Simon introduced H5P activities to UBC’s open psychology textbook, investigating interactivity’s impact on learning and advocating for screen-reader accessibility. Passionate about optimising teaching materials, he emphasises H5P’s potential to support inclusive education.

Library Dialogue | How can we open up our education at WUR?
2024-03-05 12:30 - 13:30 (Europe/Amsterdam) | Wageningen University and Research, Bronland 1, Wageningen, Gelderland, Netherlands
On 5 March, Wageningen University & Research (WUR) Library is organising a round-table discussion on Open Education. What’s WUR’s vision for Open Education? What are the practical issues that teachers run into when adopting open teaching and learning methods? And what infrastructure and solutions are available to open up our education at WUR? Your opinion is important! WUR teachers, staff and students are cordially invited to join the dialogue and share their experiences.

What is Open Education?
Open Education aims to enhance the access, inclusiveness and flexibility of education, often by using digital technologies and open licenses
The cornerstone of Open Education lies in Open Educational Resources (OER). These educational materials are openly licensed to allow everyone to freely use, adapt and share the resource. OER can include textbooks, lecture notes, videos, quizzes, and other learning materials. OER are both free of charge and free of legal barriers. Considering this, they reduce costs for students and enable teachers to adapt the materials to meet their specific students’ needs.
The Library Dialogue is taking place within the framework of the Open Education Week 4- 8 March 2024.
Programme
The Library Dialogue provides space for different perspectives and opinions on how we can open up our education at WUR. We’ll start with presentations by Nicolien Schmaal, manager of WUR’s Open Science and Education programme, and Sabien van Harten, Education Policy Officer Education.
Afterwards, we’ll break into small groups to discuss different aspects of Open Education, including:

Copyright considerations for (open) educational materials
Drivers and obstacles to the adoption of Open Educational Resources
Support and tooling for using Open Educational Resources
How to create Open Educational Resources

Insights on Technology-supported Teaching, Learning and Teacher Development in Contexts of Low Resources and Marginalisation
2024-03-05 14:00 - 15:30 (Europe/Madrid) | EDEN Digital Learning Europe, Kuklase tn 16-12, 13423, Tallinn, Tallinn, Estonia
Remote access to educational resources and opportunities for study or professional development increasingly depend on continuous access to technology, particularly smartphones and other mobile devices. Many people find themselves excluded, due to limited personal and local resources as well as multiple forms of marginalisation. In this session we present experiences and research findings from recent funded projects in low resource settings in several countries, with a special focus on Asia and Africa. The common theme in these projects has been a focus on marginalised or resource-constrained educators and students, including refugees and those who are from marginalised minority ethnic backgrounds. We draw attention to the aspirations and motivations of our research participants in their education contexts and share important insights into their experiences with technology.

Higher Education for Good Chapter Conversation with Paola Corti and Chrissi Nerantzi
2024-03-05 08:00 - 09:00 (America/Regina) | Online from Multiple Locations
With the open release into the world of the monumental project Higher Education for Good (HE4Good) co-edited by Laura Czerniewicz and Catherine Cronin, we are pleased to bring you for Open Education Week, a series OE Week Live conversations focusing on deeper discussions of individual chapters.
In this session we spend time exploring Chapter 11, Calm in the storm, with authors Paola Corti and Chrissi Nerantzi plus co-editor Catherine Cronin.
As an example of the innovative format of HE4Good, this chapter is a combination of an audio podcast with a reflective activity aimed at using metaphors from natural places to situate ourselves in these times.
We propose that our contribution could be used as an alternative conversation trigger, in whole or in part. The use we make of both audio and written visual language offers alternative ways to uncover and discover novel connections. The format we have chosen is an open invitation to immerse the listener and/or reader with us and our thinking and to encourage conversation. Readers/listeners can use a range of metaphors from nature and the world around you to explore, discuss and debate challenging issues and opportunities with other educators and students. The metaphors can be linked to higher education experiences and practices to better understand what is important, to see the higher education landscape with fresh eyes, and to identify and embrace positive ways forward.
The chapter is a guided discussion about the ideas of the education landscape using metaphors of Paola Corti’s photo of Valtellina valley.
Valtellina valley, Italy. Photo by Paola Corti. https://pxhere.com/it/photo/1667214, CC0
We hope to have an open discussion to explore and inquire about the metaphor shared in the chapter, share our own visual metaphors, and contemplate how this activity might help more of us find the calmness in the storms that keep coming. How are metaphors useful for understanding building the better futures presented in HE4Good?
This session will be streamed live to YouTube and you are invited to watch there and to send messages to our guests in the OE Week Live studio. Join us at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIUKjQ2UaOA (this link is also where you can find the recording afterward). And if are interested in contributing to the conversation with our guests, indicate this session on the OE Week Live sign up form.
Participants are asked to listen/review the chapter in advance of this session https://doi.org/10.11647/OBP.0363.1 and to consider adding comments to the chapter using Hypothes.is web annotation
We also will, continue conversations with the authors in OEG Connect
If you would like to share an open licensed photo of a place that you think could work as a conversation starter, please post ahead of time to our We Like Sharing @ OEGlobal collection and we might use it during the session.

We look forward to having you be part of this HE4Good Chapter Conversation

Higher Education for Good Chapter Conversation with Jim Luke
2024-03-05 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Regina) | Online from Multiple Locations
As 2024 highlight project and exemplar of open collaboration, Higher Education for Good (HE4Good) has been out in the world a few months. With the support of co-editors Laura Czerniewicz and Catherine Cronin, we are pleased to bring you for Open Education Week, a series OE Week Live conversations focusing on deeper discussions of individual chapters.
In this session we invite you to discusser and explore the concept and meaning of the “open knowledge commons” described by author Jim Luke in Chapter 6, Closing the factory: Reimagining higher education as commons.
“The chapter encompasses the evolution of three imaginaries of higher education, two of which have repeated historically across the globe. In the early 21st century, an opportunity for a third imaginary has emerged, one that holds great promise and I propose needs the attention and efforts of both academics and the larger society.” Jim describes the characteristics of the two historic imaginaries as the “elite knowledge commons” and the “knowledge factory” and then challenges us to imagine what he calls the “knowledge commons.”
Join the conversation with Jim and co-editor Laura Czerniewicz to probe his construct of social imaginaries for higher education, and the evolution he describes for the first two, the “elite knowledge commons” and the “knowledge factory.” How does these align or not with the desire to create that better future of higher education? Do we know we are “in the water”? How can academia and society shift the mode forward to the open knowledge commons?

Future Skills for a World Shaped by AI
2024-03-05 17:00 - 18:30 (Europe/Madrid) | EDEN Digital Learning Europe, Kuklase tn 16-12, 13423, Tallinn, Tallinn, Estonia
“AIComp – Future Skills for a Life World Shaped by AI” marks a pioneering endeavor in the realm of educational and professional development. It is developed through the NextEducation Research Group and presents the most comprehensive study to date on the subject. It sheds light on the evolving requirements that professionals face in both their careers and personal lives in an era increasingly influenced by artificial intelligence.
This groundbreaking study stands out as the first to adopt a fully action-competence-oriented approach, reconstructing an empirical competency model directly from the data gathered from over 1,600 professionals. The European skill model AIComp (Artificial Intelligence Competences) was meticulously developed through the collaborative efforts of the AI-Campus and AI-Campus Hub projects, alongside with 13 partners from education, research and industry.
By delving into the competency needs that emerge as AI becomes more integral to our professional and personal spheres, AIComp offers invaluable insights into preparing for a future where artificial intelligence shapes significant aspects of our existence. This study not only maps out the terrain of future skills but also pioneers a methodological approach that promises to influence how we understand and respond to the demands of a world transformed by AI
