19. Cronin
on OEP
“Collaborative practices that include the
creation, use, and reuse of OER, as well as
pedagogical practices employing
participatory technologies and social
networks for interaction, peer-learning,
knowledge creation, and empowerment of
learners” (Cronin, 2017, p18).
See also Cronin & MacLaren (2018)

20. Paskevicius
on OEP
“Teaching and learning practices where
openness is enacted within all aspects of
instructional practice; including the design of
learning outcomes, the selection of teaching
resources, and the planning of activities and
assessment. OEP engage both faculty and
students with the use and creation of OER, …
and support participatory student-directed
projects” (Paskevicius, 2017, p. 127).

21. Weller
on OEP
“Open educational practice covers any
significant change in educational practice
afforded by the open nature of the
internet” (Weller, 2017).

22. Weller on the open scholar

mixes personal & professional

 Produces both informal & formal
outputs
 Shares openly as a default (when
possible)
