Dual Enrollment & OER: Addressing Student Success and Equity in K-12 Settings

Tuesday October 8, 2024 11:00am - 11:40am EDT

The session will provide a unique overview of the dual enrollment landscape, particularly as it relates to the needs of dual enrollment (DE) high school students in their secondary settings and through the lens of opportunities and challenges for OER implementation. Session presenters represent the community-led GoOpen National Network, ISKME and partner, College in High School Alliance, under Foresight Law + Policy. Together they are collaborating around advancing understanding of practices and policies focused on supporting DE high school student equity and success. This includes potential leadership roles for DE high school instructors and high school librarians to take on around OER to support their students, and in addition, state policy support for dual enrollment OER. A facilitated discussion will follow to share thoughts and questions, e.g. on potential ways to support K-12 and Higher Ed collaboration in DE and ways to advance OER to equitably support students.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Describe barriers encountered and supports needed nationally for high school students to participate and succeed in the dual enrollment landscape
Describe unique contributions that high school dual enrollment instructors and high school librarians can make to support their students in the dual enrollment landscape

Open Educational Practices and Epistemic Justice

Tuesday October 8, 2024 11:45am - 12:25pm EDT

How can educators use their power in pedagogically just and effective ways? How does this relate to the aims and history of pedagogy and educational institutions? Epistemic injustice refers to someone being wronged specifically in their capacity as a knower, often in ways that correspond to broader power structures within their social context (Miranda Fricker, 2007). I argue that our inherited pedagogical norms, epitomized in Freire's discussion of the "banking method" (1970), constitute epistemic injustice in the form of epistemic dispossession. This works by selectively withholding the material, cognitive, existential, cultural, historical, and social resources required for effective learning. In a system that hopes to use institutions of learning to manufacture docility under oppression, I believe that Open Educational Practices offer a well of resources for epistemically reparative teaching. My conclusion will discuss some of the strategies I have used to "open" my teaching.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Define and explain epistemic injustice and epistemic justice
Explain the connection between epistemic justice, pedagogy, and Open Educational Practices
Relate epistemically just pedagogy and Open Educational Practices to figures in the critical/liberation pedagogy movement, such as Paolo Freire and bell hooks
Conceptualize more "open" course design and classroom facilitation techniques
Design and implement a renewable assignment

A Literature Overview: AI, OER, and Implications for Scaling Innovation

Tuesday October 8, 2024 2:15pm - 2:40pm EDT

The intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and open educational resources (OER) holds significant potential for transforming education and scaling innovation. This presentation will offer an overview of the existing scholarly literature to describe the current landscape, including the opinions, opportunities, challenges, risks, and emerging trends. AI can play a pivotal role in enhancing the adoption, adaption, and authorship of OER, both through small experiments and larger theoretical discussions. However, AI also presents challenges and risks, including data privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and ethical implications, in addition to a broader potential impact on intellectual property rights and sustainability of the OER ecosystems. This overview will provide takeaways on the intersection between AI and OER, informing future strategies for leveraging their combined potential to drive innovation and accessibility in education and as a way to scale impact for the Open Movement.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Summarize themes, trends, and remaining questions from existing literature on the intersection between AI and OER
Recognize the challenges and risks associated with AI, including concerns about privacy, bias, and ethics
Consider the evolving landscape of educational technology research on how AI could support and enhance the adoption, adaption, or authorship of OER
Identify ways that AI could drive innovation toward program development in open education

Reconsidering Success: Equity Goals for Open Education

Tuesday October 8, 2024 4:00pm - 4:55pm EDT

Coordinators of OER development projects have effective ways of responding to perfectionism: save that idea for the next edition, the open license means that the community can improve your work, etc. When a project has equity goals in mind, though, there are additional considerations about sharing when more time in development could result in a product that is better aligned with those values. Combine these challenges with the unique opportunities and pressures that accompany working with federal funding to support OER, and it’s no wonder that authors and creators committed to equity and inclusion may be overwhelmed. This discussion will include a panel of participants who are working on ambitious OER development projects funded by the federal Open Textbook Pilot fund. We want to explore the tension between the logistics of sharing a usable product, and the process of working with an equity lens. We will do this through storytelling with live polling, as well as ample Q&A time.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Consider the relationship between working in the open and working with an equity lens
Analyze OER projects developed to increase equity at different higher education institutions
Identify challenges, and strategies for overcoming them, to support equity-focused OER projects within a multi-institution consortium
Explore techniques to incorporate equity into open content.

Designing for Social Justice: A Decolonial Exploration of How to Develop EdTech for Refugees

Wednesday October 9, 2024 9:00am - 9:40am EDT

In this session we share the results from a research study that reflects on the lived experiences of young refugees located in Pakistan and Rwanda when interacting with OpenEd during and following displacement. We offer a decolonial commentary on issues related to the design and development of OpenEd for refugees, noting some of the prevalent historical trends. We are guided by critical questions such as: Who designs the products? Where are they designed? How are they designed? And, which power dynamics are at play during the design process? From this, we draw on qualitative data where we explore young refugees’ experiences. We present results of a creative element which invited research participants to imagine what a liberatory OpenEd practice would look like. We recommend and open a discussion around a set of justice-centred design principles for developers of OpenEd in refugee contexts.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Critically engage with (add to, critique and analyse) a set of justice-centered design principles for OpenEd, especially in refugee contexts.
Reflect on one's own work in OpenEd and how it adheres to justice-centered design principles.
Identify elements of coloniality in OpenEd designs for refugees.

Building Advocacy Capacity for OER

Wednesday October 9, 2024 11:00am - 11:55am EDT

Since it's inception, the open education movement has spread worldwide and recruited countless advocates to it's cause. However, new textbook sales models such as "Inclusive Access" programs stand to compromise the progress these advocates have made over the past several years. In order to ensure that this progress can continue, it is critical that advocates are equipped with the skills they need to drive forward open education initiatives in their local context. This session will equip attendees with foundational advocacy skills that can be used to drive change at their institutions and beyond. Attendees will learn how to "think like an advocate", including how to frame problems, set goals, develop strategies, and pitch solutions. While the skills taught can be applied to advocacy on any topic, this session will specifically center the issue of “Inclusive Access” programs and the threat these model presents to the goals of open education initiatives.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Use problem and solution frameworks to set advocacy goals.
Assess stakeholders and understand their motivations with respect to an issue.
Analyze decision-making processes and develop strategies to influence decision-makers.
Effectively pitch an “ask” to decision-makers and respond to challenging questions.
Start an advocacy plan on an issue of importance to capacity building efforts in their local context.

Robots Won’t Replace Us: Teaching Students to Read and Write with Generative Artificial Intelligence

Wednesday October 9, 2024 12:00pm - 12:25pm EDT

There’s a lack of consensus about how–or whether–generative artificial intelligence should be used in writing classrooms. As writing and literature professors, we were early adopters in using these tools to improve student learning and writing. We co-developed OER student training on LLMs and their uses. With our students’ consent, we use generative AI to provide formative assessments on writing. Our students want guidance from us. What are these tools? How can they be useful? When should their use be avoided? Who can students go to for help if they aren’t sure? What are the ethical concerns around these tools? This interactive presentation will provide a basic pedagogical framework for instructors starting with the development of an AI syllabus policy. We will share the AI training we require our students to complete, showing how generative AI can be used throughout the reading and writing process. Participants will consider how they can model best practices and ethical uses of AI.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Explore use cases for generative AI for reading and writing.
Evaluate whether these use cases are ethical and appropriate.
Consider a variety of approaches to AI use.
Determine the policy approach that most closely aligns with personal values.
Explore trainings and tools for students.
Review openly licensed trainings such as what we provide in our OER Write What Matters.
Consider the role of ed-tech in generative AI use.
Empower students to learn about generative AI in their courses.

Openness As Attitude, Vulnerability as Practice: Finding Our Way With GenAI

Wednesday October 9, 2024 2:30pm - 3:25pm EDT

The presenters explore their uses of openness as attitude and vulnerability as a practice with educators and students discussing generative AI (GenAI) in higher education as we experiment with ways to build GenAI literacies. GenAI has been an overwhelming "shock" for many. Openness as attitude is sharing what we are doing and learning to support others in working with emerging technologies. Vulnerability as practice is our willingness to be wrong and learn from it. These strategies allow us to approach GenAI with curiosity and criticality, excitement, and concern in order to respond quickly and constructively. We will share recent examples where openness and vulnerability have helped further classroom, social media, listserv, webinar, and conference discussions of AI in higher education.. Then we will encourage participants to share how they lean into and have benefited from openness and vulnerability and discuss the concerns, risks, and challenges of learning in these ways.

Attendees of this session will be able to:

Consider the degree of vulnerability that is appropriate for their own work in open education
Explore a variety of concrete practices to leverage openness as an attitude and assess strategies that may benefit them for their own needs
Discuss the challenge of sitting in the center of all the strong views about generative AI
