SUMMARY:Open Education Week 2023 - "What Is the Future of Open Education?"
DESCRIPTION:Description\n\n\n\nIn this panel session with policymakers and experts on open\, online and distance education we will reflect on the present situation regarding open education. Open education is a philosophy\, a way of carrying out education with the aim to widen access and participation to everyone by removing barriers and making learning accessible\, abundant\, and customisable for all. Open education is becoming ever more important in European higher education and on the global level as well due to the fact that digital technologies are one of the main driving forces behind education modernisation. So\, why do we still need to discuss the benefits of open education? How pandemic\, AI developments (especially chat GPT) and all other issues in the context of open education affected open education in a good or poor way? How can we make open education more visible and actual and did it become mainstream? We do have numerous examples of best practices\, great projects on open education\, initiatives\, documents and policies. Nevertheless\, numerous teachers are still unaware of open educational resources and open educational practices and educational institutions do not implement the principles of openness in education or research.  \n\n\n\nTo give you food for thought some of the panellists shared their views on open education in statements: \n\n\n\n\nJosep M. Duart: “Open education is a way of understanding education; to me\, it is the only one possible. Education is about sharing learning\, feelings\, experiences\, paths\, etc. Technology increases the power of Open Education by creating a global space of exchange and openness. Challenges and opportunities exist\, and the educators’ task is to interpret them in their context”.\n\n\n\nMark Brown: “Open Education is a popular catechism which suffers from many different interpretations. A deeper more transformative conception of openness that contributes to real changes in educational practices continues to depend on how successful we are in fundamentally challenging traditional closed beliefs\, policies and cultures”.\n\n\n\nJames Glapa-Grossklag: “Open education is not an end goal in itself\, rather open education provides a set of tools to accomplish larger goals\, such as increasing graduation rates and promoting student belonging”.\n\n\n\nAndreia Inamorato Dos Santos: “Open education practices need to be connected to social challenges to remain relevant and in the spotlight for policymakers. There is a need to update the discourse on open education\, as well as unpack the various ramifications and principles of open education in fields such as artificial intelligence\, digital competence\, inclusion\, equity\, and social justice”. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWatch the Recording\n\n\n\n\nModerator\n\n\n\n\nSandra Kučina Softić\, University of Zagreb University Computing Centre\, Croatia\, EDEN Digital Learning Europe MB Member\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSandra Kučina Softić is the Assistant Director at the University of Zagreb University Computing Centre SRCE (Croatia).

SUMMARY:Opening up Museums: how inclusive open education is transforming the museum experience
DESCRIPTION:Experts panel\nEither as a response to the impact of the Covid-19 crisis or a strategic move towards a more participatory culture\, most museums worldwide are now providing open access online to a large amount of their curated digital heritage content. In order to promote collaboration and learning through co-creation\, many opened up their online collections to social tagging\, or started working with communities of volunteers to transcribe manuscript archives for digital publishing projects. Some others started crowdsourcing and crowdfunding initiatives. In this new context\, Museum MOOCs and OERs have become popular tools and are now used in formal and non formal learning contexts as well as for professional development. As the learning experience becomes increasingly open\, hybrid\, ubiquitous and personalized\, museum education comes to be more engaging\, participatory and transformative\, as well as more accessible and inclusive. \nIn this webinar a panel of expert researchers will discuss how open education is contributing to the digital transformation of the museum learning experience. They will show how open education is being embraced by museum educators and explain why that is helping to address inclusion for all\, but also widening participation\, developing critical thinking\, fostering digital citizenship\, and promoting wellbeing. Speakers will share best practices and present significant experiences from such projects as INCLUSIVE MEMORY\, MUSACCES and SPEKTRUM. \n[eden-webinar-moderators] \n[eden-webinar-speakers]

SUMMARY:Democratizing research and science: Ways forward
DESCRIPTION:Presentations and panel discussion\nIn this session\, we will reflect on how research  and science are currently produced and discuss ways we could make them more inclusive\, open\, and democratic. In the first talk\, Dr  Jess Carr will talk about participatory and inclusive research with excluded communities. In the second talk\, Dr Christothea Herodotou will talk about how technology can support democratic research by allowing non-professionals to set up their own studies. In the third talk\, Prof Bart Rienties will discuss about open science and scholarship in relation to learning analytics\, inviting attendees’ to share their thoughts and perspectives. \nTalk 1 Dr Jess Carr \nTitle: What makes a researcher? Doing participatory inclusive research with excluded communities \nAbstract: To an outsider\, research and higher education institutions can seem ‘elitist’. Yet as funders look to include more communities in research\, our practice must change. So how do we engage with communities that are frequently excluded\, and break down the barriers put up by researchers who came before us? This talk will explore inclusive research\, and its participatory approaches in engaging adults with learning disabilities as co-researchers. \n\nTalk 2 Dr. Christothea Herodotou \nTitle: Opening research to non-professionals through community-led citizen science \nAbstract: A means of democratising research is to enable communities and individuals with no or limited science expertise to design their own scientific investigations\, grounded on their needs and requirements. The award-winning nQuire platform (nquire.org.uk) has been designed with support from the OU/BBC partnership\, to scaffold the process of setting up and managing scientific investigations and enable community-led citizen science. It has engaged 230K+ people with research. Two mechanisms support participants in taking control of the research process: an authoring tool and collaboration with scientists. A survey of 150 participants of nQuire identified challenges related to people initiating their own studies such as a lack of time and the need for support\, that researchers should tackle if it is to open science to all.  Implications for the design of community-led citizen science will be discussed. \n\nTalk 3 Prof Bart Rienties \nTitle: Building Open Science and Scholarship in learning analytics: some preliminary thoughts \nAbstract: On 21 March the Society of Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR) will bring together some leading thinkers in learning analytics and data science to discuss how open science and scholarship can be incorporated into learning analytics culture and practice. Practitioners and researchers from across the world are invited to share their thoughts and perspectives. At EDEN on the 8th of March we are keen to explore your perspectives on open science and scholarship\, in particular with relation to learning analytics. Amongst the questions to be discussed are: What could and should EDEN and SoLAR do to encourage open science and scholarship?; What prevents researchers from contributing to open science?; Which learning analytics approaches could (not) be made open\, and why?; And what could organisations like SoLAR and EDEN do to make open science and scholarship more attractive and relevant? \n[eden-webinar-moderators] \n[eden-webinar-speakers]

SUMMARY:Yes it's Open but is it any Good? Reflections on an Open Reading Initiative of Scholarly Research
DESCRIPTION:Panel discussion\nThis webinar focuses on the growth of open science and the plethora of open access scholarly publications in the area of digital education—for better and worse. It begins by reflecting on the 6th edition of the NIDL “top 10” good reads in the field of digital education. This exercise identifies a collection of scholarly open access articles published over the previous year that make a valuable contribution to the literature. A panel discussion then considers the challenge of finding time to “slow” read the literature and shares critical strategies for keeping abreast of the rapidly evolving literature. We ask what should you be reading? What was your top read from 2021? How do you filter the literature to ascertain whether a publication or journal article is worth reading? How much time do you spend ‘slow’ reading the literature each month and is this long enough? Just how “good” is the open-access literature? \n[eden-webinar-moderators] \n[eden-webinar-speakers]

SUMMARY:Il ruolo delle tecnologie per una scuola inclusiva e partecipativa  The role of technology for inclusive and participative schools
DESCRIPTION:ADD TO CALENDAR JOIN WITH ZOOMLanguage: Italian\nNell’ambito del seminario\, dopo aver concettualizzato il tema dell’inclusione scolastica secondo la prospettiva del modello bio–psico–sociale dell’ICF (International Classification of Functioning) (OMS\, 2002))\, si farà riferimento ad alcune criticità emerse nel contesto nazionale relativamente al fenomeno del “push and pull out” (Ianes e Demo\, 2015)\, evidenziando come sono sempre più frequenti forme diversificate di micro–esclusione degli studenti con disabilità nel contesto scolastico. In particolare\, sarà data enfasi ai differenti ruoli svolti dalle tecnologiche come strumenti capaci di facilitare l’inclusione e la partecipazione attiva alla vita sociale e didattica di tutti gli studenti che sono in situazioni di difficoltà (OMS\, 2002; ISTAT\, 2019).\nLe tecnologie mediando la relazione tra la persona e l’ambiente possono avere una funzione compensativa/abilitante\, finalizzata a rendere gli studenti “abili” supportandoli nel superamento di difficoltà fisiche e/o sensoriali\, ma anche partecipativa per garantire la loro presenza in un contesto sociale di apprendimento (Benigno\, Ferlino e Trentin\, 2019). Infine\, saranno riportati i principali risultati di una sperimentazione\, svoltasi in seno al progetto CLIPSO (Classi Ibride Per la Scuola in Ospedale)\, relativa all’implementazione di una classe ibrida per studenti che non possono frequentare la scuola per motivi di salute.\nRiferimenti BibliograficiBenigno\, V.\, Ferlino\, L.\, & Trentin\, G.\, (2019).

SUMMARY:Listening to student voices on cultural diversity: a strategy to promote interculturalism in schools
DESCRIPTION:ADD TO CALENDAR JOIN WITH ZOOMLanguage: English\nResearch on student voice suggests that children’s perspectives are important in the efforts to promote equal education opportunities to culturally-diverse student population. Despite the increased attention student voice has received\, children’s critiques and reflections of their socio-educational experiences are usually ignored by their schools. This aims to reflect on how student voice could support intercultural efforts in schools by investigating the ways in which immigrant and native children in primary schools perceive cultural diversity and its implications on their daily lives. This research can be very informative for the formation of future policies\, practices\, and teaching methodologies in culturally-diverse schools. \nSpeaker\nChristina Hadjisoteriou\nUniversity of Nicosia\n \n \n
