“Nearly one-third of the world’s population (29.3%) is under 15. Today there are 158 million people enrolled in

tertiary education. Projections suggest that that participation will peak at 263 million in 2025.

Accommodating the additional 105 million

students would require more than four major universities (30,000 students) to open every week for

the next fifteen years. “

- Sir John Daniel

Open CourseWare (OCW)

“OpenCourseWare, or OCW, is a term applied to course materials created by universities and shared freely with the

world via the internet.”

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCourseWare

The movement started in 1999 when the University of Tübingen in Germany published videos of lectures online.

The OCW movement only took off, however, with the launch of MIT OpenCourseWare at MIT in October 2002.

Open Textbooks (e-books)

An open textbook is an openly-licensed textbook offered online by its author(s) or through a non-profit or commercial open-licensed publisher. Minimum baseline rights allow users to:

Use the textbook without compensating the author; Copy the textbook, with appropriate credit to the author; Distribute the textbook non-commercially; and Shift the textbook into another format (such as digital or print).

Many authors also grant rights such as to: Add, remove or alter content in the textbook, often on the condition that

derivative works must have the same license; Copy and distribute the textbook without giving credit to the author; and Use the textbook commercially.

Page 98: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

What is MIT OpenCourseWare (OCW)?

MIT OpenCourseWare is a free publication of MIT course materials that reflects almost all the undergraduate and graduate subjects taught at MIT.

IMPORTANTLY

OCW is NOT an MIT education.

OCW DOES NOT grant degrees or certificates.

OCW DOES NOT provide access to MIT faculty.

Materials MAY NOT reflect entire content of the course.

Source: http://ocw.mit.edu/about/

Page 99: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

MIT OCW Stats 2000+ courses published.

133 million visits by 95 million visitors.

1 million visits each month.

Translations receive 500,000 more.

Source (accessed 19/04/2012): http://ocw.mit.edu/about/site-statistics/

Page 101: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

MIT OCW Uses

MIT OpenCourseWare is being used for a wide range of purposes.

Source (accessed 19/04/2012): http://ocw.mit.edu/about/site-statistics/

80% rate OCW's impact as extremely positive or positive.

91% expect that level of future impact.

96% of educators say the site has/will help improve courses.

96% of visitors would recommend the site.

Page 102: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

MIT OCW Development

An average of 100 hours effort to produce one course.

MIT faculty devote 5-10 hours for each course.

12 publication staff work directly with the faculty.

2 intellectual property staff.

4 production staff support the publication team.

5 outreach and administrative staff manage communications, media relations, outreach, program evaluation, and OCW's sustainability.

http://ocw.mit.edu/donate/why-donate/

Page 103: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

MIT OCW Cost

The total annual cost is about $3.5 million.

Cost per Non-video-based course: $10,000–$15,000

Cost per Video-based course: $30,000

For each course MIT OCW publish, they must: Compile course materials from faculty;

Ensure proper licensing for open sharing;

Format materials for global distribution;

Sustain technical infrastructure (software/hardware network); and

Provide and support local mirror sites in bandwidth constrained regions.

Page 105: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

Projected that OCW reserves will run out in FY2014 without significant changes in their current funding model.

Challenge is to offset the loss of grant funds with substantial increases in revenues such as: Donations

Endowments

Corporate sponsorships, and;

Alternative sources of revenue.

EdX: The Future of Online Education is Now

“MIT & Harvard edX's goal is to educate one billion people around the world…Planet scale access from one shared platform!”

http://youtu.be/SA6ELdIRkRU

Page 108: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

MIT + Harvard = edX

http://www.edxonline.org/

MIT and Harvard have invested

$60 million ($30 million each)

to launch the collaboration.

Anant Agarwal President, edX

Page 109: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

What is edX?

An organization established by MIT and Harvard that will develop an open-source technology platform to deliver online courses.

EdX is based on MITx, a technological platform from MIT designed that offers online versions of their courses.

MITx course sample: https://6002x.mitx.mit.edu/

Page 110: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

edX Features Include…

Self-paced learning

Video lessons

Embedded testing

Real-time feedback

Online discussion groups

Student-ranked questions and answers

Collaborative web-based laboratories

http://www.edxonline.org/faqs.html

The platform will also serve as a laboratory from which data will be gathered to better understand how students learn. Because it is open source, the platform will be continuously improved.

Page 111: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

WHY Are They Doing This?

To improve education on campus and around the world: On Campus

edX research will enhance our understanding of how students learn and how technologies can best be used as part of our larger efforts to improve teaching and learning.

Beyond edX will expand access to education, allow for certificates of mastery to be earned by able learners, and make the open source platform available to other institutions.

http://www.edxonline.org/faqs.html

Page 112: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

So, Are You Planning to Use edX?

The edX website will begin by hosting MITx and Harvardx content, with the goal of adding content from other universities interested in joining the platform.

Image source: http://bit.ly/KoEHm5

Page 113: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

But, Please REMEMBER…

“The campus environment offers opportunities and experiences that cannot be replicated online…EdX is

designed to improve, NOT REPLACE, the campus experience.”

Khan’s Future Vision?

Khan has stated a vision of turning the academy into a charter school:

“This (Khan Academy) could be the DNA for a physical school where students spend 20 percent of their day

watching videos and doing self-paced exercises and the rest of the day (80%) building robots or painting pictures or

composing music or whatever.”

In 2010, the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) commissioned

the University of Oxford to undertake a study to assess the impact of

the use of OER in the UK higher education sector.

The study team conducted interviews and held workshops with staff

(strategists and tutors) and students from 11 universities across the

sector.

The ‘OER Impact Study’ ran from November 2010 to June 2011.

Page 132: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

Recommendations

Enhancing Teaching Practice

Approach online resources primarily as a means to enhance your

practice, not necessarily as a way to develop a course more

quickly.

Adopt an open approach to your academic practice, seeking to

share resources and ideas both within your disciplinary

community and beyond it.

http://bit.ly/LXQx55

1

Page 133: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

Recommendations

Supporting Learners

Provide opportunities for students to share, discuss and critique the

online resources that they have discovered themselves.

Continue to evaluate and collate online resources in order to scaffold

students’ access to online resources.

In study skills tuition, pay attention to sources other than ‘conventional’

text. Continue to improve digital literacy, especially in relation to non-

textual sources.

When teaching students referencing and citation skills, include non-

traditional sources such as podcasts and videos.

http://bit.ly/LXQx55

2

Page 134: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

Recommendations

Improving Services to Students and Staff

When setting out students’ expectations and entitlements in relation to their learning experience, provide appropriate justification and assurances regarding the incorporation of resources originating from other institutions.

Capitalise on existing professional development activities in order to foster a voluntary culture of sharing and reuse.

Consider the reuse of online resources strategically, assessing their potential to save time or offer other efficiencies over a longer term rather than a shorter term and take account of the fact that teachers may perceive the benefits differently.

http://bit.ly/LXQx55

3

Page 135: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

Recommendations

Funding Bodies

Continue to support the production of OER in the context of reuse and consider targeting that support towards the development of interdisciplinary resources and resources in under-represented disciplines.

Support and promote ‘open’ approaches in teaching and learning practice.

Continue to support the development of technologies to improve the discoverability of OER produced by universities.

Lobby for the easing of copyright restrictions where resources are to be used for educational purposes.

http://bit.ly/LXQx55

4

Page 136: The OER 101 Workshop (Round 2)

Recommendations

Further Research

Further research into the reuse, in a global context, of full courses/modules of OER produced in your country.

Further research into the optimal ways to foster teachers’ reuse of OER.

OER Development Cycle? The OER LIFE CYCLE begins with a desire or need to learn or teach something. The following sequence of steps illustrates a typical development process:

No Steps Description

1. Find Search and find OERs using variety of OER search engines and look for existing resource lists made available online by experts.

2. Create With a collection of resources at your disposal, start fusing them together to form a learning resource. When creating OERs take into account usability, durability, accessibility and effectiveness, especially regarding format (output).

3. Localize Making a resource more useful to a particular situation (contextualizing). This may involve minor corrections and improvements, remixing components, localization and even complete rework for use in diverse contexts.

4. Remix Remixing is the act of taking two (or more) OER materials and merging them to form a new OER.

5. License Select the appropriate Creative Commons license for your OER project.

6. Use This covers the actual use of OER for your context.

7. Share Once an OER is finished, make it available for the open education community to re-use and begin the life cycle again.

Before finding and remixing OERs, set the course/module/topic aims and objectives (and course outline if possible). It might change as you develop, but it is good to have a starting destination (or map).

OER Evaluation Tools?

To help you determine the aspects of quality of OERs, Achieve has developed eight rubrics in collaboration with leaders from the OER community:

1. Degree of Alignment to Standards

2. Quality of Explanation of the Subject Matter

3. Utility of Materials Designed to Support Teaching

4. Quality of Assessment

5. Quality of Technological Interactivity

6. Quality of Instructional Tasks and Practice Exercises

7. Opportunities for Deeper Learning

8. Assurance of Accessibility
