SUMMARY:Accelerating Climate Action and Climate Justice Through Open Education
DESCRIPTION:Escalating climate disruptions and injustices demand that we keep developing and refining our forms of knowledge creation and sharing. Expanding learning opportunities through open educational resources and community-engaged open pedagogy practices can play an invaluable role in our collective response to the climate crisis and work toward a more resilient and equitable future.  \nThis moderated panel session highlights three inspiring open climate education projects in the U.S. that extend beyond conventional OERs\, with modular adaptable resources and engaging methods to reach more learners in more ways. Panelists and their projects are: \n\nDenise Linder (high school teacher\, Grafton MA): Climate Solutions Scenarios with En-ROADS\, a Subject to Climate lesson plan for high school teachers\nChristopher Rabe (postdoctoral associate\, MIT Environmental Solutions Initiative): the Climate Justice Instructional Toolkit\, with resources to support teachers infusing climate justice into a wide range of undergraduate courses and disciplines\nEdward Waisanen (platform and program manager\, University of Michigan): Gala\, a collaborative case study platform and community focused on sustainability\n\nThe session will be hosted and moderated by Curt Newton\, director of MIT OpenCourseWare\, and Richard Sebastian\, teaching and learning coach at Achieving the Dream. \nThe session will begin with brief presentations by each panelist\, followed by discussion among the panelists and moderators drawing out key learnings and points of resonance among the projects\, and close with time for attendees’ open Q&A and discussion.

SUMMARY:In the Living Room with the Open Education Network and MIT OpenCourseWare – Two Highlighted Resources
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we talk about two open educational resources: 1) Data Analysis for Social Scientists offered by MIT OpenCourseWare and 2) Accessible Appalachia by Lisa Day and Jacob Johnson\, which can be found in the Open Education Network’s Open Textbook Library.  \nWhile we will focus on just one resource each\, we will highlight how these publications are a reflection of the diversity of our collections. In order to share the work of our organizations and what that looks like\, we will take a brief tour of each resource\, including author profiles and/or instructor priorities. We will also meet people involved in their production\, and talk about how the materials evolved through the publication process. Our goals for the conversation are to celebrate and highlight two openly available resources and the people involved in creating and sharing them. Attendees will gain an introduction to the Open Education Network’s Open Textbook Library and to MIT OpenCourseWare’s course materials\, and have the opportunity to discuss open educational publications with others.  \nSpeakers: \n\nKaren Lauritsen\, Open Education Network – Senior Director\, Publishing \nBailey Lake\, Eastern Kentucky University – Assistant University Librarian\nShira Segal\, MIT OpenCourseWare – Collaborations and Engagement Manager\nCheryl Siegel\, MIT OpenCourseWare – Publication Manager and Social Media Coordinator
