UTS Open Education Week 2025
Sun April 6, 2025 - Fri April 11, 2025
University of Technology Sydney has another great Open Education Week program this year. We will focus on:
In our program we will focus on:
- Fostering inclusive and global learning. Open education supports curriculum internationalisation and decolonisation, ensuring diverse perspectives and epistemologies are integrated into learning materials
- Transforming assessment practices. Open pedagogy enables authentic assessment design, moving beyond traditional methods to foster student-driven, meaningful learning experiences.
- Enhancing accessibility and affordability. Open textbooks and OER reduce accessibility and financial barriers for students while increasing the availability of high-quality, adaptable learning resources.
- Advancing academic careers. Engagement with OER can contribute to academic recognition and career progression, demonstrating leadership in innovative teaching.
- Improving learning design and impact. Open educational practices enhance collaborative learning, making education more engaging, adaptable, and impactful for both educators and students.
The program includes these sessions via Zoom, times are in Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST). See each event for links to register
