SubjectsPlus

by BC Open Education Librarians Steering Committee

Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone here has ever heard of or maybe used SubjectsPlus?<https://subjectsplus.github.io/> It's an open source tool for library website management and can be used to create research guides, staff lists, databases A-Z pages, etc. A friend from library school mentioned it to me and I'm considering it for my library website. I'd love to hear any feedback you might have on it. Thanks in advance, Ali

Save the date: OEW event with Autumm Caines (March 4, 11am-12pm)

by BC Open Education Librarians Steering Committee

Hi everyone, I've just locked down a day/time for our Open Education Week event with Brenna Clarke Gray and Autumm Caines. Please save the date for Monday, March 4th from 11am-12pm PST. I'm just waiting on a bio and photo from Autumm for the events page. We should have registration open by tomorrow or Monday. Autumm's blog<https://autumm.edtech.fm/> has a number of widely cited posts about generative AI in the classroom, and how these new technologies are sometimes at odds with the shared values of the open education movement. Brenna and the event planning team will be developing questions for Autumm over the next week; feel free to email me with any burning questions you may have and we'll integrate them into the event. Or, you can save them for the Q&A period during the event 🙂 Thanks! -Lindsay Lindsay Tripp (she/her) Librarian, Copyright & Open Education Langara Library 604.323.5290 100 West 49th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Y 2Z6 Unceded Musqueam Territory [Langara Logo]<https://langara.ca/> ________________________________ Please consider the environment before printing.

Presenters for ALA 2024

by BC Open Education Librarians Steering Committee

Hi y'all, Following up on today's meeting, I mentioned that I'm on the lookout for folks with interest in being on a panel talking about generative AI adoption in their libraries at ALA 2024 in San Diego. Someone asked for the blurb, so here it is: *2022 and 2023 saw generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) make its way into the public’s awareness in an unprecedented way when the companies making text-to-image generation tools like Stable Diffusion and large language models like ChatGPT made their tools available to the public. This session will be a guided discussion between three panelists and a moderator who will talk about how staff at libraries and their associated institutions have approached GenAI, what the process looked like deciding how to use it, and what impacts it has had on the library services they provide.Due to the rapid pace of development and change in the field of generative artificial intelligence, presenters will be chosen sooner to the conference to ensure that the information given is both timely and relevant. However, topics for discussion will touch on the the following:- What guidance or policy governing GenAI use do their institutions have, and what kinds of discussions have happened around the ethics of GenAI?- How have GenAI tools impacted their day to day work, individually and institutionally?- How are they approaching GenAI with communities they serve? E.G. programming or workshops, technology offerings, or other community-centered services.* It'll get nailed down a bit more once I know who'll be on the panel, but broadly the goal is to provide more of a "here's how it's going" discussion rather than a more abstract discussion of AI in libraries. Speakers are responsible for the cost of travel/lodging and attendance, but the admission rate for presenters is USD$220. If you're interested, drop me a line and a paragraph or two about what's been going on at your library with AI! Sadly I can't bring everyone with me, but I'll do my best to give fair consideration to everyone. Early career (grad within 5 years), BIPOC, or 2SLGBTQIA+ librarians are especially encouraged to reach out. Thanks kindly, Peter Musser (he/him) Head of Library Services | OER Commons <https://www.oercommons.org> Institute for the Study of Knowledge Management in Education

October BCOEL Meeting

by Amanda Grey

Hello! For our October BCOEL Meeting, we moved it from the second Monday (9th) to the third Monday (16th) because of Thanksgiving. However, I notice that Monday the 16th is the OE Global Conference and several of us will be attending and therefore unavailable. I see three options: 1. Move it to Monday Oct 23 2. Move it to Tuesday Oct 10 (same time, 1-2pm) 3. Cancel it and wait until our next meeting (Nov 20) Please vote in this StrawPoll by the end of next week (Friday Sept 22) so that I can make a decision and update everyone in time.

Can Open Pedagogy Encourage Care? Student Perspectives

by Amanda Grey

Hello! I want to share this new article that was recently published by KPU faculty member Deirdre Maultsaid and TRU faculty member Michelle Harrison. This publication is the result of Deirdre’s year working with us as an Open Education Research Fellow and explores student perspectives on Open Pedagogy. Can Open Pedagogy Encourage Care? Student Perspectives<https://www.irrodl.org/index.php/irrodl/article/view/6901> Abstract: As a response to the increasing commercialization of postsecondary education, educators argue for a practice of care in education. Open pedagogy (OP) seems like an ideal practice where care, trust, and inclusion can be realized. OP is characterized as a democratic and collaborative pedagogical practice, in which students and teachers work to co-create learning and knowledge using openly licensed materials, open platforms, and other open processes. The purposes of this study were, first, to reveal ways students in postsecondary institutions perceive care and, second, to determine how students suggest OP can be used to create an open/caring learning process. A task-oriented focus group method engaged students from four teaching-focused institutions. The students created open cases on social issues for class discussion and reflected on care and OP processes in postsecondary settings. Using four elements of the ethics of care—attentiveness, responsibility, competence, and trustworthiness—as conceptual categories, the study examined students’ experience of care and care in OP using affective coding and thematic analysis. The results showed that through OP, with teacher support and explicitly designed practices of care, students can assert their agency, have quintessential roles in creating and participating in highly relevant curriculum and importantly, care about others, and be cared for. OP is a process able to involve a diverse population of students and embody care as an all-encompassing practice.

BCOEL for Open Access Week 2023

by Amanda Grey

Hello (again)! Would anyone be interested in Arianna’s suggestion below to write a blog post for the BCcampus website for Open Access Week? Cheers, Amanda From: Arianna Cheveldave <acheveldave(a)bccampus.ca> Sent: Friday, September 15, 2023 8:46 AM To: Amanda Grey <Amanda.Grey(a)kpu.ca> Subject: Re: BCOEL for Open Access Week 2023 CAUTION External Sender: Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Hi Amanda, That's no problem. We just thought we would ask and make the offer. If someone at BCOEL is interested, you could write a guest blog post for the BCcampus website pertaining to Open Access Week. This was a suggestion by our MarComm team. This blog post could then be promoted in our newsletter published on October 18, so the turnaround time would probably be less than a month. Is there any interest in this? It's okay if not: we just wanted to reach out.

Zoom Meeting Login Requirement

by Amanda Grey

Hi everyone, I looked into the Zoom meeting settings and found that KPU IT has locked the setting that requires used to sign into Zoom before joining a meeting. Since everyone seemed to be able to join on Monday, I’m going to proceed with the assumption that we can continue using Zoom. If anyone has an issue with this, please let me know and I will reschedule the meetings through Teams.
