ACRL call to create/deliver an OER Roadshow

by Brenda Smith

Hi everyone, Just in case you didn't see this on the ACRL Update, I'm sending it along to all of you: Call for Curriculum Designers/Presenters Open Educational Resources and Affordability RoadShow ACRL is accepting applications from prospective curriculum designers/presenters to create and deliver a new ACRL RoadShow to support librarians in finding, using, and developing open educational resources (OERs). This introductory level, day-long workshop will be intended for academic librarians and library staff integrating OERs into their institutions and developing OER initiatives. The curriculum designers will plan and develop learning experiences for face-to-face and online learning intended to build librarians' knowledge and use of open education practices. The in-person workshops will be offered upon request on a licensed basis, as with the existing ACRL RoadShows<http://ala.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT04NDQwNTI3JnA9MSZ1PTEwMDc0MzE3OTYmbGk9Nj…>. In-person workshops may also be offered at ALA and/or ACRL Conferences. Additional online offerings on open education would be part of ACRL's regular e-Learning program and could include a multi-week asynchronous course and one or more topical webcasts of 60-90 minutes each in an interactive online classroom. The application deadline is May 1, 2019. A selection committee with representatives from the ACRL New Roles and Changing Landscapes Committee and ACRL staff will consider applications and conduct telephone interviews. Applicants will be notified by June 1, 2019. Complete information is available on ACRL Insider<http://ala.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT04NDQwNTI3JnA9MSZ1PTEwMDc0MzE3OTYmbGk9Nj…>. Sounds like an interesting opportunity. Brenda BCOEL Chair

Call to Action: Indigenous Writers Wikipedia Edit-athon

by Fields, Erin

Hi All, I know we are all busy with Open Education Week events at our home institutions but I would like to invite folks to the following event. Best, Erin Indigenous Writers Wikipedia Edit-athon Date/Time: March 4, 1-4 pm Location: First Nations Longhouse, UBC-Vancouver Campus Cost : Free! There will be author readings, refreshments, and door prizes Register: http://bit.ly/2X2mV0m <https://t.co/C5HVFb3vx4> In December 2015 Daniel Heath Justice<https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Heath_Justice> (author of “Why Indigenous Literature Matters<https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Heath_Justice#Why_Indigenous_Literat…>") began a Twitter campaign to share the names of Indigenous writers. The reason for his efforts was to “...push back against the frequent assumptions that our literary history is any less complex, robust, or diverse than that of other peoples.”[1]<https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Vancouver/Indigenous_Liter…> So why a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon? Wikipedia is a multilingual, web-based, free encyclopedia based on a model of open community generated knowledge. The community driven nature of Wikipedia is meant to support Wikipedia’s goal of providing “…every single person on the planet is given free access to the sum of all human knowledge.”[2]<https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/Vancouver/Indigenous_Liter…> However, well documented systematic bias including, information gaps, exclusions, diversity of articles and editors, and assumptions about neutrality and notability greatly impacts the information that can be found in an information source with millions of views per day. The Indigenous Writers Wikipedia Edit-a-thon is seeking to improve the coverage of Indigenous writers on Wikipedia and to encourage diverse community editors to actively work to dissuade assumptions about Indigenous literature by raising their profile in this increasingly influential information source.
