This session will cover what Open Educational Resources are with an introduction to the six levels of openness in the Creative Commons licenses and the 5 R's of David Wiley's "open" (Retain, reuse, redistribute, remix and revise). We'll use advanced searching in YOuTube and Google and repositories such as OERCommons.org for truly open resources. I'll share options for creating OER (e.g. Oercommons "author", screencasting, educanon) and discuss open course platforms (e.g. Moodle, BrightSpace, Canvas).

5. Four things to cover
I. What do people mean by open?
practical more than philosophical
II. How do you find good OER which will help students
meet learning objectives ?
III. How can you modify, remix and create your OER for a
better fit ?
IV.How can you integrate your OER to best meet your
learning objectives?
5
6. What do you know already?
-- Very familiar (use it regularly; might have created your own)
-- Pretty familiar -- know some common open resources
(Oercommons.org, merlot, connexions) and have occasionally used
it or are thinking about it
-- know it as a buzzword but dont really know what to do with it
-- This is your first time learning about OER

7. David Wiley: OER are like toothbrushes
Distributing a resource doesnt mean its doing the good we
want it to. Having them out there for people to use doesnt
mean that educational gains will be made.
Do people know how to use it? Can they get inside the
packaging and to the useful parts?
Do we really have a way of knowing how the tools are being
used?

34. Quality, quality!!
At Oercommons.org, many resources
have been evaluated using a thorough
rubric (as opposed to clicking a number of
stars or thumbs up or thumbs down).
If you use an OER, consider evaluating it
and sharing your experience.
34
35. Creating your own!
(STARTING WITH REVISING OTHERS)
-- ILL JUST DESCRIBE A FEW OPTIONS; THERE ARE HOW-TO SESSIONS
FOR SOME OF THEM HERE.

36. Universal Design/ Accessibility
Is it really open if its not accessible to
people who use screen readers, or have
hearing impairments?
Open resources can be adapted.

for figuring out how to use OER
is
usually
underestimated.

47. Integrating OER
Being able to modify OER and frame them
with structures students are already
accustomed to can be a big help.
Use a template for lesson plan
Look it over -- do students need to learn 8
different ways of accessing and working
with OER?
... While theyre supposed to be learning
the content?
47
48. An example of an integrated
lesson:

51. Give it a try! Use an OER you
found (https://goo.gl/c9YQz4 )
What is the learning objective? What should students be able to do?
What do students need to know how to do already? This might include:
-- navigate activities on a website ( a good idea to do in face to face session
or to provide screencast if online).
-- prepare Word documents or PowerPoint presentations
What *part* of the lesson does the OER facilitate?
-- introduction
-- skills practice
-- opportunity for students to create their own or adapt
-- opportunity for students to share what they do online

Editor's Notes
(Working title page... Subject to change... ) Dont forget to add the mooc about blended learning!
Its all OER now, baby blue
Get OER it!
Hello! Im Sue Jones, and I work in the Center for Academic Success just up the road at Parkland College. I provide academic support to students in pre-college level courses in a 16-computer lab.
Just across the hall is the Professional Development and Instructional Technology unit, known as P-Dit. Our director, Derrick Baker, and the Directors Assistant, Molly Murphy, have helped immensely in turning a proposal into a presentation.
Im an active member of the LINCS online community: Literacy Information and Communication System. There are groups in the communities that cover all kinds of issues in literacy, including math, which Im in the most demand for, as well as online courses. Belonging in this group has led to several pretty outstanding professional development opportunities. This semesters was especially interesting:
In this Train the trainer course I trained to facilitate an online course in using OER in adult education for math and science (I did math).
What really excited me about this course was that it recognizes that hey! Theres some cool stuff on the Internet, and its free! is barely the first step. Im going to try to condense that 8-week course into 50 minutes and hope you will be inspired to plan look more deeply at OER and open learning.
Okay thats one minute.
(will talk more about this later)

and if I can think of it, something about how the more you get into the culture, the more they grow on you and you find advantages you hadnt thought of.
. *could* be making them our own, and get what needs to be done under our own power.
People feel intimidated about using them for the long haul, but the more people do it, the better it gets!
Id love images demonstrating a degree of open where the door is unlockable but you go into that little room to do what is provided for you, exactly.... (like share-a-bike)
Put pictures of a bunch of different kinds of bikes here
So... You can use it, but you cant make it your own.
Okay, first, find one of those not really open at all things from oercommons.org
David Wiley talks about five elements that are important in considering just how open a resource is. You need to finish up the attribution here
Retain - the right to make, own, and control copies of the content. Thats really important anywhere live internet access is limited.
Reuse the right to use the content in a wide range of ways (e.g., in a class, in a study group, on a website, in a video)
Revise the right to alter the content itself (e.g., translate the content into another language, clip things out, add pictures)
Remix the right to combine the original or revised content with other open content to create something new (e.g., incorporate the content into a mashup).
Redistribute the right to share copies of the original content, your revisions, or your remixes with others (e.g., give a copy of the content to a friend)

I dont know if I could link directly to a video version on that page, but I could link to it inside the slide show as long as it isnt on the first three slides.
http://www.resourceroom.net/mec/AbsoluteValue.html -- Absolute Value lesson with link to Powerpoint; could also have links to image files and other resources.
Creative Commons recommends these six possibilities for
A CClicenseis used when an author wants to give people the right to share, use, and build upon a work that they have created.
https://youtu.be/Hkz4q2yuQU8 - awesome movie about different OER licenses and how to mix and match resources that have them.
(Yes, Im wondering at ways to make this screen-readable without making it too cluttered, and whether to *learn this stuff* properly... Like... Take that course?)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9yUejp6iDE -- thats the intro to Merlot.
I need to
Add phet phet phet
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9yUejp6iDE -- thats the intro to Merlot.
I need to
Doh --- include 際際滷Share and see if they have an advanced search
... Somebody could change the content without changing what makes Google decide that its open.
Its worth having a notebook or a Google doc where you can take notes about which resources are most useful. Ive found that the resources from CK-12 are consistently truly open source, though I dont think they have been reviewed as much as, say, the CPALMS resources have been.
(Just like the scene in the video.. You may get permission for you to do what you want but you might also inspire the person to change how theyre doing things. )

The Best in track right before me is about screencasting.
Need pic of trike and tandem here! From News-Gazette May 19
Its like the decision to shift to open start moving in that direction and pick up momentum.
ADD THE EASI LINK
If you scroll to more and see that a video has a Creative Commons CC-BY license, there will also be a link right there to remix this video.
Can the second one be embedded?
