Editor's Notes
- What is the same about these? (Discussion) Point: both are covered under the full protection of the law; have full protection of copyright law, anything I create, a child creates, has the same protection as the most expensive movie ever created. All copyright is pervasive...what is the impact of this? It impacts the way we share, the way we teach, the way we learn.
- Education is sharing Teacher share knowledge and skills, feedback and criticism, encouragement Students share questions, assignments, feedback even president’s selfies with Social Work graduates
- What is the role of Openness in Education? Education is Sharing Teacher share knowledge and skills, feedback and criticism, encouragement Students share questions, assignments, feedback

- Because of the internet, my colleagues from Tacoma Community College, Christie Fierro and Quill West, and I can view the same page simultaneously with millions of other people all over the world…and practically for free!
- Fundamental shift - we can share pervasively! Not at an increase in cost, but at an increase in the ability to share.
- Copyright: regulates copying, distributing, editing, and adapting
- College Tuition Has Outpaced Inflation by 237% Since 1978 Result exacerbates income inequality by depriving those of less means of the schooling they need to advance Graph Source: http://dvschroeder.blogspot.com/2013/08/college-tuition-has-outpaced-inflation.html Bloomberg: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-08-26/college-costs-surge-500-in-u-s-since-1985-chart-of-the-day.html exacerbate income inequality by depriving those of less means of the schooling they need to advance and may also derail the “prestige and status” of U.S. higher education, said Michelle Cooper, president of the Washington-based Institute for Higher Education Policy. While U.S. schools have remained competitive globally in the face of declining state subsidies and rising tuition costs, it’s fair to ask whether students are getting what they pay for, she said.

- Bottom line: when students don’t have access to content – especially those most at-risk – they are not prepared for academic success

- Grants target barriers to educational success Strives to improve college readiness and completion by identifying promising technology solutions Initial funding for the project was 2011 from a Next Generation Learning Challenges Wave I grant focused on improving college completion for at-risk students using technology solutions. Won Campus Technology award in summer of 2012 and received follow-on funding in fall 2012 Screenshot: http://nextgenlearning.org/nglc-overview Kaleidoscope’s goal is to improve the academic success of at-risk students by: using the best of existing open educational resources, also known as OER improving student success eliminating textbook costs as a barrier improving learning materials using a continuous, assessment driven enhancement process, and creating a collaborative community to share learning, investment, and faculty development Quote: http://oli.cmu.edu
- Potential to positively disrupt the textbook divide in higher education
- Openly sharing materials is powerful
- Openly sharing materials is powerful
- At its core, open materials are 5Rs First four are what impact teaching and learning Bundling multiple texts is expensive: Focused on return of investment of textbook Revise: reduce the amount of materials Opportunity for students to engage in materials…engaging students to revise and add to the textbook for their course Source: http://opencontent.org/blog/archives/3221
- Creative Commons makes it easy to share Open source software community has it There are broad global uses of CC outside of education as well (Click on hyperlink) Discuss 3 layers of licensing: Human Readable (language means I can understand it); Legal Code (legalese); Machine Readable (Google search can pick it up) Demo Advanced Google search and looking for CC logo (generally found at the bottom of webpages) Case against using CC NC for materials you create is removing the option to print materials for students CC button says it gives permission CCBY means attribute it to the original author Creates professional network Personal connections Commerical Use: can someone use the material Sharealike: revise but keep the same license NC License hurts when printing: need to have a sustainable process; CK 12 agreement under $5 per book; extra piece; we are still living in a world where we need print materials If Kscope is funding faculty time, materials created must be CCBY
- What do OER look like? Biology textbook
- Videos, interactives, simulations
- Courses…OER can be almost anything!
- and there’s even more… Although millions of philanthropic dollars have been poured into OER development, the idea that “if you build it, they will adopt it” has not necessarily applied in OER adoption. OER is available, but mining can be painful. Contact support@lumenlearning with questions, concerns, comments.

- just to clear up some potential confusion Open does * not equal digital, and * open does not equal free. Open materials in Education look like - * open educational resources, * open textbooks, and * open courses My interest in open began with * open source software … Perhaps * a Venn diagram would help There are free materials online that are not open, and there are open materials that are not online. *
- Collaboration of OER Leaders and Experts Top row: how to be smart Middle: Technology and content providers larger project and match Last: Funding ____ Given that faculty collaborators in the initial phase of the project (myself included) had little or no knowledge or experience with OER, including open licensing, mining the wealth of existing OER, and identifying quality OER were unsure of how to effectively collaborate across institutions were not strong instructional designers or educational technologists nor knew how to utilize learning analytics for continuous improvement it was imperative that the project included OER experts in advisory roles from different organizations. These advisors continue to support the project through the current iteration of our work and beyond.

- with Faculty Collaborators ____ In 2011, Kaleidoscope’s founding 8 members consisted of community colleges and open access, 4-year schools ranging from California across to New York. I represented Chadron State College, a four-year open enrollment institution in Nebraska, as a Faculty Collaborator in developmental reading, writing, and college success courses Today 3 years later, the next phase of this growing project – one that has and continues to be one of the most profound experiences of my career.
- taking textbook costs out of the equation Case studies at both Houston Community College (2012) and Virginia State University (2010) suggest that classes using open textbooks have higher grades and better course completion rates http://creativecommons.org/tag/open-textbooks
- All with a shared vision: students have 100% free, digital access to all materials on the first day of the course. With this step alone, institutions have already boosted student success and retention simply by taking textbook costs out of the equation. If that is the day 1 impact of OER, just think about the other ways we can move the needle on student success by designing, adopting, measuring success and improving OER-based courses.

- Many instructors begin with textbook, favored lessons, and time-honored activities rather than deriving those tools from targeted goals or standards – “backward” from conventional habits. This approach can be thought of as purposeful task-analysis. The results are a more sharply defined teaching and learning target so that students perform better knowing their goal. There is greater coherence among desired results, key performances, and teaching and learning experiences which leads to better students performance – the purpose of instructional design. http://www-tc.pbs.org/teacherline/courses/inst325/docs/inst325_wiggins_mctighe.pdf

- Current teams collaborating in the development and adoption in these disciplines. Some courses have iterated several times over, others are just beginning to pave the way
- Math results Overall, In the first phase of Kaleidoscope, 11 Gen Ed courses were developed, over 9,000 students participated, the required textbook cost dropped to $0, and the average change in student success (C or better in the course) reported was +10% some as high as +14%
