SUMMARY:Unlocking the Potential: Open Educational Practices and the Digital Transformation of Work-Integrated Learning Experiences
DESCRIPTION:This presentation delves into the transformative potential of open education in dismantling barriers for experiential learning within language minority contexts and in fostering an inclusive educational landscape. \nWe will first explore the concepts of experiential learning\, work-integrated learning (WIL)\, and open educational resources (OER)\, as well as provide context surrounding the creation of our OERs\, namely that this work has been spearheaded under the Consortium d’apprentissage expérientiel francophone de l’Ontario (CAPFO) program of eCampusOntario. \nWe will then dive into two OERs created within the context of CAPFO. The first OER will showcase our survey results from the WIL CAPFO Report in 2023 that canvas trends and challenges in the franco-ontarian sector. These insights will be complemented by an exploration of the WIL Framework\, a strategic tool developed within the CAPFO context to bolster educator engagement. \nBy sharing our experiences\, outcomes\, and collaborative frameworks\, we aim to inspire educators and institutions to embrace the power of open education in cultivating enriching experiential learning environments\, especially within language minority settings. \nWe are looking to share valuable insights and contribute to the ongoing discourse on the intersection of open education\, experiential learning\, and linguistic minorities to pave the way for a more accessible and inclusive educational future. \nThis presentation will help the audience explore the power of open education in breaking down barriers for experiential education in a language minority context.

SUMMARY:Débloquer le potentiel : Pratiques éducatives ouvertes et la transformation numérique des expériences d’apprentissage intégrées au travail
DESCRIPTION:Cette présentation examine le potentiel de transformation de l’éducation ouverte en éliminant les obstacles à l’apprentissage par l’expérience dans les contextes de minorités linguistiques et en favorisant un paysage éducatif inclusif. \nNous commencerons par explorer les concepts d’apprentissage expérientiel\, d’apprentissage intégré au travail (AIT) et de ressources éducatives libres (REL)\, et nous fournirons le contexte entourant la création de nos REL\, à savoir que ce travail a été mené dans le cadre du programme Consortium d’apprentissage expérientiel francophone de l’Ontario (CAPFO) d’eCampusOntario. \nNous nous pencherons ensuite sur deux REL créées dans le cadre du CAPFO. Le premier REL présentera les résultats de notre enquête dans le cadre du rapport de l’AIT du CAPFO en 2023\, qui décrit les tendances et les défis dans le secteur franco-ontarien. Ces informations seront complétées par une exploration du cadre de l’AIT\, un outil stratégique développé dans le contexte du CAPFO pour renforcer l’engagement des professeurs. \nEn partageant nos expériences\, nos résultats et nos cadres de collaboration\, nous visons à inspirer les professeurs et les institutions à saisir le pouvoir de l’éducation ouverte en cultivant des environnements d’apprentissage expérientiel enrichissants\, en particulier dans les milieux linguistiques minoritaires. \nNous souhaitons partager des idées précieuses et contribuer au discours en cours sur l’intersection de l’éducation ouverte\, de l’apprentissage par l’expérience et des minorités linguistiques afin d’ouvrir la voie à un avenir éducatif plus accessible et inclusif. \nCette présentation aidera le public à explorer le pouvoir de l’éducation ouverte pour faire tomber les barrières de l’éducation expérientielle dans un contexte de minorité linguistique.
