Re: NEW OER: Creating the Modern: Intersections of Art & Society in the Nineteenth Century

by Canada Open Education Resources

Dear Colleagues in the OER Community, Are you looking for examples of what an image-intensive open textbook for the fine arts might look like in Pressbooks? After exploration and customization, we’re especially excited to share with you the following new open textbook published at Concordia University Library: Title: Creating the Modern: Intersections of Art & Society in the Nineteenth Century Authored by Loren Lerner and Karine Antaki For the course: ARTH 366 Studies in 19th Century Art and Architecture Creating the Modern by Loren Lerner and Karine Antaki is a visually rich open textbook for visual studies, art history, and nineteenth-century studies. “Topics such as class and gender, academism and the avant-garde, the reception and consumption of progressive art, the culture of spectatorship, psycho-social illness, Eurocentrism, and religious and racial prejudice encourage a multi-faceted understanding of how the narrative of nineteenth-century art is a narrative intrinsically attached to the problematics, and promise, of emerging modernity.” Read and view the resource<https://opentextbooks.concordia.ca/creating-the-modern/> Part of Concordia University Library’s OER Program<https://www.concordia.ca/library/oer.html> WorldCat Record <https://concordiauniversity.on.worldcat.org/oclc/1436664054> Happy Open Access Week, Rachel Harris Dr. Rachel Harris<https://www.concordia.ca/faculty/rachel-harris.html> Scholarly Publishing Librarian English Book Review Editor, Papers/Cahiers<https://jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/bsc/about/editorialTeam> ORCID: 0000-0002-7356-0127<https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7356-0127> Contact: rachel.harris(a)concordia.ca Concordia University Library, Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal (unceded Indigenous land) [cid:52de2d22-675a-4efd-98cc-b7a00de3be3c]<https://outlook.office.com/bookwithme/user/2f53ef835f43484d99ed02e99b1e5a86…> Book time to meet with me<https://outlook.office.com/bookwithme/user/2f53ef835f43484d99ed02e99b1e5a86…>

UBC Open Access Week - Sessions Open to All

by Canada Open Education Resources

[https://open-2021.sites.olt.ubc.ca/files/2024/09/OAWeek_BannerGeneric-1536x…] Open Access Week is an an international event whose goal is to highlight how open scholarship can help people meet their goals in research, scholarly publishing, teaching and learning. Each year, as part of Open Access Week, UBC showcases diverse events highlighting areas of open scholarship that UBC’s faculty, students and staff participate in as well as guests from local and global community. This year’s events will explore the evolving role of generative AI<https://genai.ubc.ca/> in open scholarship, addressing its potential benefits and challenges, including ethical considerations related to Indigenous knowledge, the impacts on institutional barriers, and strategies for responsible use. All of these events are FREE and open to the public, students, faculty, staff and schools. The Influence of AI on Academic Publishing Date: Monday, October 21, 2024 Time: 11:00am – 12:00pm Location: Online Join us for a discussion with Taylor & Francis VP External Affairs and Policy, Priya Madina, on AI and academic publishing.

Register<https://libcal.library.ubc.ca/event/3839450> “Stop Generating”: Generative AI in the Contexts of Indigenous Studies Date: Thursday, October 24, 2024 Time: 1:00pm – 2:00pm Location: Online Generative AI has forced universities to contend with complex ethical and social questions—namely because writing is so deeply entrenched as an institutional gatekeeping. For many students, particularly those from marginalized backgrounds or for whom English is not a first language, the pressure to translate ideas into “proper” English contributes to attrition rates and exacerbates feelings of inadequacy, alienation, and exclusion from many academic communities. From an equity and inclusion perspective, AI has the potential to disrupt institutional barriers by offering accessible tools that level the grammatical playing field. By functioning as virtual tutors or co-writers, AI systems can assist students in producing more polished and coherent prose, thus challenging the traditional hierarchies that privilege certain grammatical and stylistic norms. Instead of attempting to ban these tools (which is, to say the least, impractical), I side with a growing number of technology scholars who argue that we should focus on teaching students how to use generative AI responsibly and effectively. However, I do so with the caveat that teaching responsible AI use means critically engaging the complex and often messy processes that make AI what it is. In this presentation, I draw from Indigenous theorists and authors to situate generative AI and large language models (LLMs) within a long colonial history of extraction. Just as colonial states declare Indigenous lands terra nullius, allowing settlers to exploit resources through mining, clear-cutting, and other forms of extraction, generative AI similarly depends on the unchecked extraction of data, including Indigenous knowledge and cultural resources, often without consent. The late Gregory Younging refers to this process as gnaritas nullius, the colonial rendering of Indigenous knowledge into public property. The unchecked extraction of writing, including, but not limited to, Indigenous knowledge, represents a new frontier for colonial capitalism, where cultural and intellectual property are commodified by those with the most access and power. As Nando de Freitas notes, the future of AI development depends on scale: those who control the largest datasets will have the greatest advantage and profit the most from AI. The numerous high-profile copyright cases against companies like OpenAI and Meta show that how this data is collected is treated as a secondary issue. This unbridled, dehumanizing race for data mirrors the extractive practices that have driven capitalist-colonial expansion for centuries. Building on these ideas, I mobilize the insights of Indigenous authors like Younging, Scott Lyons, and Cherie Dimaline to highlight strategies for resisting colonial extraction and challenging capitalist systems through rhetorical sovereignty and the concept of incommensurability. The goal is not to discourage the use of generative AI but, in the Faustian sense, to reveal the costs of embracing it, especially when it is employed to subvert oppressive institutional structures.

Federal Pre-Budget Consultation (2025) - Briefs Due Aug 2

by Canada Open Education Resources

Hi Everyone, The House of Commons Finance Committee (FINA) has announced its regular pre-budget consultation (for 2025). Link: https://www.ourcommons.ca/committees/en/FINA/StudyActivity?studyActivityId=… In that regard, perhaps there could be some sort of coordinated approach - either we could aim to have groups and individuals agree on a common ask (perhaps based on the advocacy work to date/the National Framework <https://www.carl-abrc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/A-National-Advocacy-Fra…>), or alternatively we could develop a document that would allow anyone to sign on and then try to get as many signatories as possible. I recognize coordinating over July is a bit of a mess (especially with the brief due right before a long weekend). Michael
