SUMMARY:Stronger Together: The Network of Open Organizations
DESCRIPTION:The Network of Open Organizations is a global alliance of diverse institutions and leaders committed to expanding open education and access to knowledge worldwide. Launched in 2019 and coordinated by Open Education Global\, the Network brings together educational institutions\, NGOs\, inter-governmental bodies\, and other open advocates to collaborate on shared goals\, including supporting the implementation of the UNESCO Recommendation on Open Educational Resources (OER) and advancing broader open education initiatives worldwide. By fostering ongoing dialogue\, mutual support\, and coordinated action\, the Network helps amplify collective efforts\, share best practices\, and align global\, regional\, and local strategies for openness in education and beyond. \nAt its core\, the Network serves as a learning and collaboration hub—a space where members exchange insights\, and also seek to co-develop initiatives\, and engage with complex challenges that no single organisation could address alone. \nThe Network of Open Organizations meets online on the first Tuesday of each month. Join us for the session during Open Education Week on Tuesday\, 3 March from 5:30 pm until 6:30 Paris time to engage with selected representatives of the Network of Open Organizations members\, learn about the network activities and future intentions and information on how to join.

SUMMARY:Open Education Solutions for Complex Times
DESCRIPTION:Join the University of Regina for this special Open Education Week presentation\, “Open Education Solutions for Complex Times” with Anne-Marie Scott\, Vice President of the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) in Vancouver\, BC. \nAbstract: Post-secondary institutions across Canada are facing a complex and uncertain future as they rapidly adjust to economic scarcity\, and it is clear that business-as-usual operating models will not support us to meet the challenges ahead. Compounding this is a tendency towards historical amnesia and constant reinvention; often the answers we need are already out there waiting to be discovered. The Commonwealth of Learning has a long history of working in contexts where complexity and uncertainty are the norm and has successfully used open education as an effective innovation toolkit. Drawing on examples\, this talk will outline the ways in which various elements of the open education ecosystem could be used to meet some of these big challenges in Canada head-on\, and (I hope) provide some inspiration to keep us moving forward. \nPresenter bio: Anne-Marie Scott is the Vice President of the Commonwealth of Learning (COL) in Vancouver\, Canada where she supports COL’s mission and work in open learning for sustainable development across fifty-six countries. She is an internationally recognized expert in digital\, online\, and open education\, with leadership experience across higher education and the non-profit sector. She previously served as Deputy Provost of Athabasca University in Canada\, and before that spent nearly two decades at the University of Edinburgh in the UK. She serves on the Board of the Open Source Initiative and continues to teach in the Masters in Learning and Technology at Royal Roads University in Canada.

SUMMARY:OEWeek Live! Beyond ChatGPT: GenAI in Action
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for our live streamed demos aimed at showing you first hand what Generative AI can do for educators that goes beyond the typical perception of the popular ChatGPT interaction\, and not just “prompt engineering”. \nWe have lined up three demos to perhaps make you say “Wow” but maybe also “Oh my ______”.  Watch the demos live streamed on YouTube and send your comments and questions directly through chat to the guests in studio. \nWe do not flip slides and show screenshots on OEWeek Live\, you will see screen shared live demos in action and than have an opportunity to contribute to a lively conversation. Our guests in the studio include: \nWatch What an Agentic Browser Can Do on a Student’s behalf\nAnna Mills English/Writing instructor and an early AI inquisitor\, will demonstrate something that may make your jaw drop. Beyond the chat interface we are used to are “agentic browsers” that can be set loose online to perform tasks for us. Anna has published several videos showing tools like Perplexity Comet\, ChatGPT Atlas\, and Google Gemini completing quizzes and replying to discussions in a Learning Management System\, all while logged in as a learner (without any direct involvement by the student). She argues for the platforms to provide better guardrails. \nAnna Mills teaches writing at College of Marin and previously taught at City College of San Francisco for 17 years. Her collection “AI Text Generators and Teaching Writing: Starting Points for Inquiry” is featured in the Writing Across the Curriculum Clearinghouse; it includes a curated collection of articles\, a set of sample AI essays\, and a list of strategies for mitigating educational harms associated with large language models. She has also written an Open Educational Resource (OER) textbook\, How Arguments Work: A Guide to Writing and Analyzing Texts in College\, which has been widely praised and used at over 45 colleges. As the English Discipline Lead for the Academic Senate of the California Community Colleges OER Initiative\, she leads professional development workshops on OER and collaborative annotation. Anna earned a master’s degree from Bennington College in Writing and Literature with a focus on nonfiction writing\, and her essays have appeared in journals such as The Writer’s Chronicle\, The Sun\, and Salmagundi. \nTwo Autonomous Agents Work Together to Generate OER\nYasin Dahi founder of Learnful will show us GenOER an experimental platform designed for educators to generate OER (including interactive H5P activities) that are fully designed and created by autonomous agents. The system deploys a powerful model of a pair two autonomous agents working together that simulate the principles of educational design — and Educator Agent and a Designer Agent. “GenOER is not just a tool — it’s a testbed for exploring one of the most pressing questions in open education today: what happens when the “author” of an open resource is an algorithm? I hope GenOER sparks discussion\, critique\, and collaboration across the OER community. This is an experiment\, but one that asks real questions about scale\, pedagogy\, licensing\, and the future of authorship.” \nYasin is the founder of Learnful\, an EdTech software company based in Waterloo\, Ontario\, Canada. He develops open-source solutions focused on open education and digital learning. His projects — including H5P Studio\, GenOER\, and Axiom — aim to democratize access to software tools for OER\, H5P\, and AI. \nAn OER Repository with an AI Assisted Form that Writes the Metadasta\nMuriel Peguret and Mirela Cherciov from the Camerise Project at York University’s Glendon Campus will be showing a new tool for using AI to generate metadata for OER that is submitted for Camerise K-12 Studio (a project being demonstrated in another OEWeek Event) \nMuriel Péguret received her PhD in FSL Applied Linguistics from Dalhousie University in 2009. She is an Associate Professor at York University in French Studies (Glendon College) and the Faculty of Education. She co-leads with Mirela Cherciov the Camerise K-12 Studio project (built by Learnful Labs Inc.)\, a repository of French as second language OER for K-12 teachers. \nMirela Cherciov is an Associate Researcher who is developing\, in collaboration with Muriel Péguret\, an OER platform for K-12 FSL teachers. She holds a PhD in French Studies from the University of Toronto. She conducted research on first-language attrition and bilingualism across the lifespan and has been teaching FSL and linguistics courses. \nWatch live here or return later to see the recording. \n\nImage Credits: Old TV – Time Tunnel – Cameron Highland flickr photo by liewcf shared under a Creative Commons (BY-SA 2.0) license remixed with OEW OEWeek image by Mario Badilla licensed CC BY 4.0 and Bart Fish & Power Tools of AI / Behaviour Power / Licenced by CC-BY 4.0

SUMMARY:Leading the Way: How NorQuest Became an Open Education Leader
DESCRIPTION:Open Education at NorQuest College has changed dramatically since 2016\, when we first began encouraging faculty to incorporate open images into their online courses. What started as a small initiative has expanded into a major campus initiative. \n  \nOur Reimagine Higher Education plan positioned NorQuest as a world leader in open education\, with ambitious goals: publishing 15 open textbooks by 2030\, hosting the Open Education Global 2023 conference\, and becoming a textbook-cost-free institution by the end of the decade. \n  \nWe are not only meeting these goals—we’re surpassing them. \n  \nIn a panel discussion with open stakeholders at NorQuest\, we will explore the impact of open education at our college and speculate on next steps in our open journey.

SUMMARY:Wikipedia & Open Pedagogy
DESCRIPTION:For decades Wikipedia was stigmatized because of its self-governed and open approach to content creation and revision. After 25 years since its launch\, Wikipedia has offered a unique opportunity for students in open pedagogical environments. This Brock University session will address the incorporation of Wikipedia assignments into post-secondary courses\, popular initiatives that might appeal to instructors and students\, and important considerations for instructors who are contemplating incorporating Wikipedia into their course design. Hosted by a Wikipedian/Librarian who brings 10 years of experience editing\, teaching\, and researching Wikipedia\, participants will leave this session with an understanding of what is required to build Wikipedia into an existing or new course\, what they can expect from students\, and what students can expect to learn. \nThis Workshop will be lead by Denise Smith\, Head\, Research Lifecycle\, Brock Library
