OER Authorship Study Invitation
by openkpu＠lists.bccampus.ca 04 Apr '24

04 Apr '24

Hi everyone, I received the following invitation and am passing it on to you! If you have authored a Pressbook in the KPU Pressbook Catalogue<https://kpu.pressbooks.pub/catalogue/>, it has automatically been added to the OER Commons Open Textbook hub and they are requesting your participation in their research project. Cheers, Amanda Dear OER Textbook Author, In February, we requested your participation in our research study “Assessing the Authorship of Open Education Resources: A Study of Demographics, Expectations, and Experiences.” We are excited to share that we had a tremendous response to our request! Though we are happy with the response, we are still seeking more participants for our study. If you have not completed the survey, please do so before the end of next week, as we will begin analyzing the data and moving forward with the project soon. Please do not fill out the survey again if you have already responded. As a reminder, this project aims to explore OER (Open Education Resources) textbook authorship. Research in OERs is relatively new, and some questions have yet to be explored empirically. It is currently unknown what demographic groups tend to author OERs or from what institutions OERs tend to emanate. Therefore, our study is an attempt to describe the typical OER author to encourage a diverse pool of OER authors in the future. Using publicly and privately available data, we will assess OER authorship. In the first phase of the study, we will gather the title, subject area, year of publication, author(s)’ name, and author(s)’ email address of each OER textbook in the OER Commons’ Open Textbooks hub (https://oercommons.org/hubs/open-textbooks) Then, we will recruit participants to complete a survey, in which we will assess demographic information about OER authors, current position, current institution, and other demographic information. Finally, we will conduct interviews with a sample of survey participants to understand the experience of an OER author. We have identified you as an author of an OER textbook in the OER Commons’ Open Textbooks hub (https://oercommons.org/hubs/open-textbooks) If you recieve multiple email invitation, it is because you authored multiple texts in the OER Commons database. Please only reply to one of these invitations. We would appreciate your participation in this study by completing a brief study on your demographic information and motivation for writing an OER textbook. Participation is complete optional. The survey will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. At the end of the survey you will be asked if you are interested in participating in a follow-up interview about your experiences. This aspect of the study is also optional and is not required for participation in the survey.

Indigenous Peoples in Education: A Stock Photo Collection – An Image SPLOT
by openkpu＠lists.bccampus.ca 14 Feb '24

14 Feb '24

Apologies for the double post, but I also wanted to share this resource with you: Thompson Rivers University (TRU) has created the Indigenous Education Stock Photos collection<https://indigenouseducationstockphotos.trubox.ca/> due to a lack of open-source photos of Indigenous students for use in OER. The spirit of the photo collection is to allow educators to represent Indigenous peoples in their OER so that Indigenous students can see themselves reflected in their learning materials. This project was funded jointly by BCcampus and the TRU OER Development Grant and developed in consultation with the TRU Office of Indigenous Education and a TRU community stakeholder session. TRU production and media teams and the TRU Open Press assisted in producing the content. All photos have a CC BY NC SA license: * You may use, adapt, and share them, but you must attribute the photographer and link back to the collection * You may not use the photos for commercial purposes * You must distribute any created derivatives under the photo’s original license Where is it?: https://indigenouseducationstockphotos.trubox.ca/ [logo gif] Amanda Grey (she/her) Open Education Strategist, Teaching & Learning Commons t 604-599-3345 e amanda.grey(a)kpu.ca w www.kpu.ca/open Through active intentional partnering, the Teaching & Learning Commons provides pedagogical leadership that is grounded in community, ethics, creativity, and care.

Hi everyone! If anyone is interested in learning more about H5P (usable in Moodle, Pressbooks, and Wordpress), UBC is hosting an H5P Symposium on February 21st and 22nd<https://blogs.ubc.ca/h5psymposium/>. In this multi-day online symposium, they aim to further explore how interactivity and opportunities for formative assessment can be embedded into passive learning materials with a special focus on creating interactive videos. The 2024 H5P Symposium will also explore evidence-based best practices for (a) creating good formative assessment questions, (b) providing timely feedback, and (c) how (and when) to create branching interactive videos that respond and adapt to student feedback. The Symposium will highlight H5P’s strengths and limitations, and highlight successful examples of implementation and course integration for various content types. We will also offer studio time with the support of experienced content creators to introduce you to the authoring platform and help you brainstorm how it could be used in your context. The H5P Symposium is free and open to all, and students; please extend this invitation to any interested people and groups.

New Audiobook OER: Developing Organizational and Managerial Wisdom – 2nd Edition
by openkpu＠lists.bccampus.ca 15 Jan '24

15 Jan '24

Hi everyone, I’m excited to share the following new resource: Developing Organizational and Managerial Wisdom – 2nd Edition (Audio plus text version)<https://kpu.pressbooks.pub/developingwisdomaudiobook/> by Brad Anderson, an audiobook version of an existing OER. This Pressbook embeds audio recordings in each chapter, provides a playlist of all recordings for uninterrupted listening, and provides links to download the audio files. Here’s what Brad had to say about this project: Over the past year, I have realized that most of our students have accessibility issues. Many people’s first reaction to that is doubt, but that, I believe, is because many people still view accessibility through a physical disability lens. The student working thirty hours a week who must cross two bridges in rush-hour traffic to get to campus has an accessibility issue. So does the student renting a bed in a house with half a dozen roommates and no dedicated workspace, a student caring for a sick family member, one with mental health challenges, or … you get the picture. How many barriers might we remove if we made an audio version of textbooks available they could listen to while stuck in traffic? Universal design for learning (UDL) is about giving students options in accessing course material, empowering them to fit learning into the unique considerations of their lives. A couple of years ago, I created this OER textbook under a Creative Commons licence to reduce barriers to learning. Creating an audio version of that text is a continuation of that effort to reduce barriers. While there were many challenges associated with developing this audiobook, with some creative thinking and advice from one of KPU’s Educational Media Strategists, we were able to overcome them. Going forward, I am excited to encourage other OER authors to consider creating an audiobook versions, as well as streamlining and improving the process.
