New OER | Cases on Social Issues: For class discussion / Deirdre Maultsaid | KPU

by Urooj Nizami

Cases on Social Issues: For class discussion Edited by Deirdre Maultsaid<https://kpu.pressbooks.pub/social-issue-cases/front-matter/70/> [Graphical user interface, website Description automatically generated] Link to resource: https://kpu.pressbooks.pub/social-issue-cases/ This Open Educational Resource, “Cases on Social Issues: For Class Discussion” includes valuable cases on issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion for student use. The critical events portrayed in the cases are realistic and emotional, and feature the experiences of under-represented and marginalized people. These thoughtful, contemporary cases pose ethical dilemmas about social issues that encourage post-secondary students and instructors to have stimulating, inclusive, and compassionate discussions. Inspired by input from post-secondary students and authored by people usually under-represented in education material, this resource is designed for upper-level undergraduate or graduate students in the humanities, social sciences, business, healthcare, science, agriculture, environmental studies, law and more. Each case is supplemented with modifiable discussion prompts, notes for teaching strategy, and a short reading list. This resource is a work in progress.

Webinar: Indigenous Open Educational Resources: Respectfully Uplifting Community Voices

by Amanda Coolidge (she/her)

Hope you will join us for this webinar: Indigenous Open Educational Resources: Respectfully Uplifting Community Voices May 24, 2022 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am Open education is grounded in Western understandings of ownership, protocol, and accessibility. Often open education has a goal of making all knowledges available for all peoples. Within Canadian copyright law is tension with Indigenous knowledges and Indigenous ways of knowing and being. The open education community must carefully consider Indigenous knowledges and self-determination, which are deeply rooted in community-defined ethics and protocols and do not fit into ordinary academic contexts. This session will explore some of the concerns around open educational resources (OER) and Indigenous knowledges while using Indigenous worldviews to better understand how Indigenous knowledges can be respectfully incorporated into OER. Facilitator Kayla Lar-Son is of Métis and Ukranian settler ancestry, originally from Treaty Six territory, Tofield, Alberta. She currently resides on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. At UBC Kayla is the Indigenous programs and services librarian at the Xwi7xwa Library and the program manager librarian for the Indigitization program.

Report: Teaching and Learning with Open Educational Resources (OER)

by Amanda Coolidge (she/her)

Hello All A new report has been published by Achieving the Dream and SRI Education. This study addresses the urgent need to better understand how the use of OER can support educational equity, particularly in educational settings that serve historically marginalized student populations. The report identifies five dimensions of open education and culturally responsive teaching: * Study agency and ownership, or the extent to which the course and positions students as leaders of their learning * Inclusive content, or how the instructor brings in diverse perspectives and tailors the content to students’ backgrounds * Collaborative knowledge generation, or how students apply/develop new theories or contribute to “renewable” or generative assignments. * Critical consciousness, or how the instructor provides students with real-world assignments, decolonizes the curriculum, and addresses power imbalances * Classroom culture, or how the instructor cultivates strong relationships and an inclusive environment The study is based on interviews with faculty and administrators, student focus groups, and course observations at eight community colleges, and is a careful examination of teaching practice among committed OER users and technology-oriented faculty members.

Evaluating Open Pedagogy

by Ross, Heather

Hi all. A colleague and I are developing a Sustainability Fellowship at USask that will include the fellows: * Learning about course design using the UN SDGs and open pedagogy * Creating a resource for other educators on how to integrate the SDGs into their own course design and teaching * Teaching a class where they will integrate one or more of the SDGs, hopefully including open pedagogy * Supporting and advising their departmental / college colleagues to do the same We have modules in our course evaluation system for OER and for sustainability, but not for open pedagogy. Does anyone have or know of questions for student evaluations of the inclusion of open pedagogy in a course? Heather M. Ross, BA BEd MEd Educational Development Specialist University of Saskatchewan Gwenna Moss Centre for Teaching and Learning Ph: 306-966-5327<tel:306-966-5327> Find open textbooks and other open educational resources on: http://open.usask.ca<http://open.usask.ca/>
