Call for Expressions of Interest – CARL Visiting Program Officer for Open Education
https://www.carl-abrc.ca/news/call-vpo-for-open-education-2021/
The Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL)<https://www.carl-abrc.ca/> is the national voice of Canada’s twenty-nine largest university libraries and two federal institutions. A bilingual not-for-profit organization, CARL coordinates national initiatives across its member institutions and promotes their causes to achieve excellence in research and higher education.
CARL invites applications for a Visiting Program Officer (VPO) focused in the area of open education (OE). The position will entail working for CARL for the equivalent of one day per week, and is expected to start in October 2021, for a period of one year. The deadline to apply is Friday, September 10, 2021.
Visiting Program Officer positions are an arrangement between CARL and the individual’s home institution, normally for a minimum period of one year at 20% of their time. There is no salary remuneration from CARL associated with this position; the home institution continues to pay the Visiting Program Officer’s salary. Benefits arising from this experience for the incumbent and the home institution include broadened experience and knowledge gained from working on national initiative; while for CARL and its members, the position helps advance a common priority.
In 2018, CARL identified OE leadership as an important area for capacity building within its institutions. CARL has since formed an Open Education Working Group (OEWG)<https://www.carl-abrc.ca/advancing-research/scholarly-communication/open-ed…> and led activities and programs designed to bolster practice and support the development of national leadership in this area. CARL has also initiated engagement with other post-secondary stakeholder groups in considering strategies for increasing the momentum of open education in Canada. The VPO for OE will guide CARL’s evolving program of open education initiatives.
RESPONSIBILITY:
In collaboration with Joy Kirchner, chair of CARL’s Open Education Working Group (OEWG), and with Lise Brin, CARL’s full-time Program Officer supporting the Advancing Research Committee’s initiatives, the VPO will take a leading role in planning and delivering CARL’s OE efforts, working closely with the CARL Open Education Working Group to shape its slate of OE-related activities and communications plan and deliver these activities, including but not limited to “OeLE Light,” a workshop-in-a-box version of the Open Education Leadership Essentials workshop offered by the OEWG in 2020, and CARL’s communication activities related to OER.
REQUIREMENTS:
* Must be based at a Canadian post-secondary institution;
* Must have obtained library director’s agreement for the arrangement with CARL as described;
* Possesses excellent communication skills, both verbal and written;
* Has proven group facilitation skills or will have successfully delivered training programs to peers, and demonstrates the ability to ensure diverse experiences and perspectives are treated respectfully;
* Has project management experience;
* Has significant experience and expertise in the areas of open education and open educational resources;
* The ability to communicate effectively both orally and in writing in French and English will be deemed an asset.
If there are multiple candidates who fulfil the criteria above, selection will be based on demonstrated leadership, prior involvement, and level of institutional support; and may involve an interview.
To apply, please send a copy of your CV, an introductory letter outlining your suitability for this role and a letter from your library director confirming support for the nomination and the proposed arrangement, to Susan Haigh, Executive Director of CARL, susan.haigh(a)carl-abrc.ca<mailto:susan.haigh@carl-abrc.ca>, no later than September 10, 2021.

Appel d’intérêt – Agente ou agent de programme invité(e) de l’ABRC pour l’éducation ouverte
https://www.carl-abrc.ca/fr/nouvelles/appel-api-pour-education-ouverte-2021/
L’Association des bibliothèques de recherche du Canada (ABRC)<https://www.carl-abrc.ca/fr/> représente les vingt-neuf plus grandes bibliothèques de recherche universitaires au pays et deux établissements fédéraux. À titre d’organisme bilingue sans but lucratif, l’ABRC coordonne les initiatives nationales de ses établissements membres et fait progresser leurs causes afin d’atteindre l’excellence dans la recherche et l’enseignement supérieur.
L’ABRC invite les personnes intéressées à présenter leur candidature pour le poste d’agente ou d’agent de programme invité(e) (API) pour l’éducation ouverte (ÉO). Le poste nécessitera au moins un jour de travail par semaine pour l’ABRC et devrait commencer en octobre 2021 pour une durée d’un an. La date limite pour présenter une demande est le vendredi 10 septembre 2021.
Le poste d’API consiste en une entente entre l’ABRC et l’établissement d’attache de la personne, normalement pour une période minimale d’un an à 20 % de son temps de travail. La rémunération de ce poste n’est pas assurée par l’ABRC, mais par l’établissement d’attache qui devra continuer à payer le salaire de la personne. Grâce à ce poste, le ou la titulaire et son établissement d’attache élargiront leur expérience et leurs connaissances liées à des initiatives nationales, alors que l’ABRC et ses membres feront progresser une priorité commune.
En 2018, l’ABRC a reconnu l’importance du leadership en éducation ouverte pour contribuer à renforcer les capacités de ses établissements membres. L’ABRC a alors mis sur pied un Groupe de travail sur l’éducation ouverte (GTÉO)<https://www.carl-abrc.ca/fr/faire-avancer-la-recherche/communication-savant…> et a mené des initiatives visant à soutenir les pratiques dans ce domaine et à appuyer le développement d’un leadership national en matière de REL et d'éducation ouverte. L’ABRC a également amorcé un dialogue avec d’autres groupes d’intervenants du secteur postsecondaire pour examiner des stratégies visant à accroître l’élan de l’éducation ouverte au Canada. L’API pour l’éducation ouverte orientera le programme en pleine évolution d’initiatives d’ÉO de l’ABRC.
RESPONSIBILITÉS
En collaboration avec Joy Kirchner, présidente du Comité sur l’éducation ouverte de l’ABRC et Lise Brin, agente de programme à temps plein à l’ABRC qui appuie les initiatives du Comité sur l’avancement de la recherche, l’API jouera un rôle de premier plan dans la planification et l’exécution des activités de l’ABRC relatives à l'éducation ouverte. Il/elle travaillera en étroite collaboration avec le GTÉO pour établir la liste des activités et des plans de communication et pour exécuter ces activités, y compris, mais sans s’y limiter, « OeLE Light », une version d’atelier en boîte s’inspirant de « Open Education Leadership Essentials (OeLE)» [Atelier sur les principes fondamentaux de leadership en éducation ouverte], un atelier offert par le GTÉO en 2020, ainsi que les activités de communication de l’ABRC liées aux REL.
COMPÉTENCES REQUISES
* Être en poste dans un établissement d’enseignement postsecondaire au Canada;
* Avoir obtenu l’accord de sa direction de bibliothèque pour l’entente avec l’ABRC, telle que décrite ci-dessus;
* Posséder d’excellentes aptitudes en communication verbale et écrite;
* Posséder des compétences éprouvées en animation de groupe ou avoir offert avec succès des programmes de formation à des pairs et démontrer une capacité à traiter diverses expériences et perspectives avec respect;
* Avoir de l’expérience en gestion de projet;
* Posséder une expérience et une expertise importantes dans les domaines de l’éducation libre et les ressources éducatives libres;
* La capacité de communiquer efficacement tant à l’oral qu’à l’écrit en français et en anglais sera considérée comme un atout.
Si plusieurs candidatures répondent aux critères ci-dessus, la sélection sera fondée sur le leadership démontré, l’engagement préalable dans des initiatives d’envergure nationale et le niveau de soutien institutionnel. Une entrevue pourrait être exigée.
Pour poser votre candidature, veuillez envoyer un exemplaire de votre CV, une lettre de présentation décrivant vos aptitudes à remplir ce rôle et une lettre de la part de votre direction de bibliothèque confirmant son appui à votre candidature et son accord avec le prêt d’une ressource professionnelle à l’ABRC, tel que défini ci-dessus. Ces documents doivent être envoyés à Susan Haigh, directrice générale de l’ABRC, à : susan.haigh(a)carl-abrc.ca<mailto:susan.haigh@carl-abrc.ca>, au plus tard le 10 septembre 2021.

Dear all,
I’m writing on behalf of faculty member Shereen Hassan at Kwantlen Polytechnic University in British Columbia. Dr. Hassan is looking for a contributor to author a chapter in the much-anticipated, Canada-focused, Introduction to Criminology openly-licensed textbook. The outstanding chapter requiring an author is:
1. Victimology
Please see Dr. Hassan’s letter below and circulate this Call for Authors widely. This is a paid opportunity and would come with a $500 honorarium.
If interested or for more information, please reach out to Dr. Shereen Hassan at shereen.hassan(a)kpu.ca<mailto:shereen.hassan@kpu.ca> by Monday, September 13, 2021.

I hope that this email finds you well. My name is Dr. Shereen Hassan and I am an SFU criminology alumni. I completed my PhD under the supervision of Dr. Simon Verdun-Jones in 2010. I am now a faculty member at Kwantlen Polytechnic University in the Criminology department and have been here for almost 17 years.
I am reaching out about an opportunity to contribute to an Open Education Resource for the Introduction to Criminology course. This text will be the first of its kind in Canadian Criminology and is unique as it seeks to incorporate Indigenous knowledge, history and content in a way that Criminology texts to date have failed to do. Dr. Gail Anderson has contributed in the area of biological explanations of crime, and Dr. Zachary Rowan and Michaela McGuire have co-authored a chapter on learning theories. There are authors from several other universities in B.C. and elsewhere, so it's quite a collaborative effort!
I am still looking for an author in the area of (1) Victimology.
We are flexible on deadlines, and we are hoping to have a draft by December 2021. This text is an introductory text, so the idea here is to provide a brief overview, but to also address this theoretical framework's application to Indigenous principles, Indigenous peoples, Indigenous issues in some way, wherever possible. We have asked authors to keep the chapters short (approximately 4000 words) or as close to that as possible.
It would be a wonderful honour to have you contribute to this important project.
I look forward to hearing back from you.
All the best,
Shereen Hassan, PhD
Criminology Faculty
Kwantlen Polytechnic University

Hello everyone!
The first (University of Alberta, CTL) Open Pedagogy Community of Practice meeting occurred this week, and I’m pleased to share we had 37 participants from various Canadian and US (83 registrations). The CoP is intended to focus specifically on instructional practices which are open (OER-enabled or not).
Now that we have one session under our belt and feedback is rolling in, I want to reach out to develop partnerships. My vision is to collaboratively host quarterly sessions and drive our planning based on feedback generated from the participants each term. If you’re interested in collaborating to co-host the November session, I would love to hear from you! The commitment would involve partnering with me (yes!) to achieve the following:
- Evaluate feedback collected from the community
- Determine the format and topics of November’s meeting
- Plan potential future feedback loops to enact
- Co-host November’s meeting
- Post-event communication / feedback
Currently, our next session is booked on November 16, 1pm - 3pm MDT.
More information can be found on the current Open Pedagogy CoP page <https://www.ualberta.ca/centre-for-teaching-and-learning/teaching-support/o…>, which eventually will become something collaborative. Recordings from the August 24th event will be added in the next week or so. Slides including jam board screenshots can bet found here <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1E4CyDBip_Xd22ZOaIYlre-wye-2JOFRm6F4…>. We did not record the event itself, but I did post-recordings of the webinar content. (Introductions to Communities of Practice and Open Pedagogy)
Thank you for your time. I hope to hear from you soon!

Good morning / afternoon and sorry for the cross-post.
An instructor sent me this message and I haven't found anything yet, so I'm wondering if anyone else may know of some resources. Thank you.
"I am teaching an assessment course in Education, which is new to me. It does not have a textbook, so I am looking for resources to use with the students- content is on validity and reliability, formative, and summative assessment, making assessments using multiple choice questions, making rubrics and checklists etc. Would there be something available in the open resources that might be helpful?"

Like Amanda said, congratulations on this great example of collaboration.
What really gets me, though, is the mention of work on a French edition!
“Relevant to my interests.”
Would it be possible to put us in touch with people involved on the Francophone side? I’m sure Lise Brin and Lucie Vincent-LeBlanc are already aware of this work. Just hope we can build bridges with ongoing efforts, here in Quebec.
Again, congratulations…
And thanks for sharing!
