SUMMARY:Free Books: Open Publishing at Concordia
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate Open Education Month\, Concordia Library is pleased to present a new display highlighting open publishing at the Library and Concordia University Press (CUP). Together\, the Library and CUP collaborate to make scholarship and education free and accessible within and beyond the university. \nOpen Educational Resources (OER) are digital resources for teaching\, learning\, and research that are made available for use and re-purposing. They increase the variety of instructional resources in students’ learning experiences while lowering the financial barriers. OER in the form of open textbooks are a hallmark of Concordia’s OER program. Although open-access publications from university presses often do not permit repurposing in the same way that open textbooks do\, they are nonetheless free for students and can be adopted in courses. In parallel with open publishing\, Course Reserves also offer a free option for students. \nThis collaborative display illustrates how open education and open scholarship can nurture each other. As higher education becomes increasingly costly\, students stand to gain from the cost-saving benefits of viable alternatives to commercial textbooks. Meanwhile\, professors can choose to deepen their research and pedagogical impact by developing open-access and knowledge-mobilization plans to benefit students and the wider public. \nOrganized in six sections\, this display introduces students and faculty to the parallels between CUP and the Library’s OER program. In the vitrine and the digital counter\, you will find awareness efforts alongside physical and digital books from CUP and Concordia’s OER program. QR codes make these titles easily accessible\, while OER and CUP buttons and slogans promote the importance of open publishing. \nFinally\, the horizons of free course material options can be expanded through student advocacy and faculty pedagogy. We encourage students to nominate a course for open education and show their support for open publishing by wearing one of our buttons found at the Ask-Us Desk. We encourage faculty to consider open textbook grants\, course reserves\, and open-access university presses. \nLet’s reduce barriers to higher education together! \nCurated by the Library’s OER Team and Concordia University Press\, the exhibition will be on display from March 3 until April 30\, 2025. Special thanks to Zo Kopyna\, Chhayhee Sok\, Saelan Twerdy\, Meredith Carruthers and Rachel Harris. \nConcordia University Library supports open scholarship\, education\, and science. As part of this commitment\, the Library leads the University’s OER Program and continues to develop open scholarship initiatives and services\, such as our open guides and institutional repository. \nConcordia University Press is a non-profit publisher of peer-reviewed books. Concordia University Press is committed to barrier-free scholarship and our titles are available as free\, open-access e-books\, as well as for sale in thoughtfully designed print editions.

SUMMARY:Imagine a gender equal world – help write women onto Wikipedia for IWD!
DESCRIPTION:“Women in Red” – a Wikipedia editathon celebrating the lives and contributions of all the inspiring women of Scotland (and around the world) missing from the world’s go-to site for information. \nWikipedia is the 8th most visited website in the world but lacks diversity in its editors and its articles. Only 20.02% of biographies on English Wikipedia\, the world’s go-to source of information\, are about women. Women are not a minority and we can #ChooseToChallenge the paucity of stories currently shared on the open web and #InspireInclusion. This event will focus on improving the representation of inspiring women online. \nParticipants will learn how to edit Wikipedia pages during a hybrid event (online webinar AND in person meetup in the University of Edinburgh Main Library on the 6th floor in the Digital Scholarship Centre) and will be supported over the afternoon to help create new pages for notable individuals who are not currently on Wikipedia (perhaps from BBC’s 100 Women 2025) and/or help improve already existing Wikipedia pages. \nNo prior knowledge required as training will be provided for those with no Wikipedia editing experience. \nYou’ll learn a new digital skill in a social & supportive setting and meet like-minded event participants all passionate about improving representation online to help close the gender gap for the benefit of millions of readers all around the world. \n\n1:00 pm – 1:15pm: Welcome and Tea/Coffee\n1:15pm – 2:15pm: Wikipedia training from Ewan McAndrew.\n2:15pm – 2:30pm: Tea and Coffee break\n2:30 pm – 4:30pm: Research and Editing with aim to publish by 4:30pm.\n4:30pm – 5:00pm: Publishing your edits\, recap and event close.\n\n  \nJoin us as we help make Wikipedia better! \nThen you can check how long it takes for it to appear in Google’s top ten results! \nHave a look at the event page to see if there are pages you would like to help edit/create and if you fancy learning more about Wikipedia ahead of time then you can view the Wiki Basics site. \n

SUMMARY:Curiosity Unleashed: Experimenting with Open Pet-agogy (with Cats!)
DESCRIPTION:Note: This is merely a playful demo and test of the OE Week Calendar! \nAre you ready to let your curiosity lead the way\, just like a cat chasing a laser pointer? Join us for a paws-on workshop where we explore the playful\, experimental world of Open Education through Open Source tools. This interactive session encourages participants to embrace their inner feline — inquisitive\, daring\, and playful — as we scratch the surface of what’s possible when Open Education meets Open Source software. \nThrough collaborative activities and a whisker of whimsy\, we’ll navigate the fundamentals of open education\, experiment with open-source tools\, and discover how to integrate them into our own teaching and learning contexts. Every step of the way\, we’ll lean into the metaphor of cats: curiosity\, adaptability\, and the knack for landing on our feet when trying new things. \nWhether you’re a seasoned open education advocate or just dipping a paw into the waters\, this workshop is for anyone eager to pounce on new ideas\, play with innovative tools\, and create impactful learning experiences. \nWorkshop Goals: \n\nDiscover the Playground: Introduce participants to the foundational concepts of Open Education and Open Source software\, purring over their value and potential in learning environments.\nExperiment Like Cats: Encourage playful experimentation with open-source tools and platforms that support Open Education. Participants will gain hands-on experience and insights into how these tools can be used to create engaging and equitable learning experiences.\nCollaborative Catnip: Foster a sense of community among participants by engaging in collaborative\, interactive activities that emphasize the power of shared knowledge and resources.\nCuriosity Empowered: Equip participants with the confidence to approach Open Education and Open Source tools as a sandbox for innovation and creativity.\n\nActivities Overview: \n\n“Chase the Laser Pointer”: An icebreaker activity to explore common challenges in education and how open resources and tools might solve them.\n“Tinker with the Toybox”: A hands-on session where participants play with Open Source tools\, from learning management systems to collaborative content creation software.\n“Catnip Collaborations”: Small group activities to brainstorm open education projects\, fostering a playful but purposeful approach to creating new educational resources or initiatives.\n“Purrspectives”: A wrap-up reflection where participants share what they’ve learned and discuss next steps for implementing Open Education in their contexts.\n\nWhat to Bring:\nYour sense of curiosity\, an open mind\, and a readiness to play! Optional: a favorite cat photo or story to share during our “feline inspiration” moments. \nJoin us to unleash your creative instincts\, pounce on new tools\, and leave with a renewed commitment to making education accessible and engaging for all! 🐾 \nCreate your own event or version of an OER that includes cats by asking GenAI to create an image and descriptive text\, then share it in our thread in OEG Connect. \n\nDisclosure:This is a farcical entry created solely for testing\, generated with ChatGPT (link) as it is best for creating fabricated content. The prompt was “You are organizing an online workshop about the value of experimenting with Open Education using Open Source software\, the activities have an element of play\, and makes the use of the metaphor of cats. Write a description of a workshop with goals\, and make many feline references.”

SUMMARY:Integrating AI to Produce OER using OER Conversion Tool convOERter
DESCRIPTION:With the rapid advancement of generative AI technologies nowadays\, it is beneficial to use these technologies effectively to create Open Educational Resources (OER). This talk introduces the essentialness of using generative AI technology in the OER context\, particularly by applying a Text-to-Image model in the OER conversion tool “convOERter.” \n“convOERter” is a web-based tool that has been developed to convert existing educational materials containing images into ones with a Creative Common (CC) license. The development of the conversion tool greatly eases the process of creating OER content\, as it automatically captures the images in the original materials and allows educators to search for a replacement image that is CC-licensed in OER portals. However\, despite the substantial collection of high-quality images provided by these portals\, finding a replacement image that precisely aligns with the educator’s requirements remains challenging due to the static nature of any database. \nGenerative AI refers to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create new content\, like text\, images\, music\, audio\, and videos based on human input. In the field of image generation\, various models are now available which offer a valuable opportunity for generating high-quality OER content. When educators cannot find suitable replacement images in Creative Commons portals\, employing a Text-to-Image AI model becomes essential for generating appropriate images. In this talk\, we will introduce the OER conversion tool and present the first steps towards integrating AI models within the tool.

SUMMARY:The Provocations of Indigenous Cultures within a Conference: Using Métissage to Explore the In/Compatibility of Indigenous Ways of Knowing with Open Education
DESCRIPTION:At OE Global 2023 Indigenous ways of knowing and being were a fundamental component of the conference design and organization. Indigenous and non-Indigenous organizers established a collaborative governance approach to foster partnership and mutual guidance throughout the planning and execution stages. \nIn this session\, Dawn Witherspoon\, Darrion Letendre\, and Robert Lawson will perform métissage to recount the design and implementation of\, and personal experiences with\, a conference program that reflected the concept of two-eyed seeing\, navigating Indigenous and non-Indigenous worldviews. We will explore the incompatibility and compatibility of Indigenous ways of knowing with the ontological and epistemological assumptions embedded into open education. A fundamental question we examine is how the braiding of conference stories can unearth the interplay of Indigenous (nêhiyawîhcikêwin Plains Cree) ways of knowing with the values and practices of open education.
