Editor's Notes
- Context Open Education and OER movement gaining momentumi In particular in BC with the Open Textbook project Postsecondary Librarians well positioned and much needed for leadership role – advocacy and consulting Librarians have: Expertise in searching for, curating and organizing high quality educational resources Established trusted relationships with faculty at their institutions Always been early adopters of technology student interests at heart /advocates Long track record as excellent collaborators
- BCOER Informal and grassroots group - began December 2013 as one answer to what could post sec librarians be doing help faculty learn about OER Began as a conversation with fellow librarians on how to address adoption of open textbooks and use of quality OER met to explore ideas Identified need and desire to co-develop practical OER tools/guides for faculty and support librarians/colleagues to do this Agreed to Work collaboratively on OER guides, subject guides and tools to support OER awareness & advocacy Share Information & resources & broader librarian community Focus on projects with immediate and mid-term benefits Advocate for longer term: ongoing professional development for librarians 12 BC Public Postsecondary institutions have participants on our working group Meet monthly via teleconference Wikispace and a group list Supported by BCcampus
- 4 or 5 Monthly meetings then decided in order to really get something done we needed some dedicated time. In early May 2014 – BCOER Hackfest – crowdsourced ideas on that were most in need interest Day of the event we selected OER repository Assessment rubric/ Science repositories & developing some OER Advocacy tools. 14 attendees – BCOER & UBC Library students Group one: focused on testing a newly developed OER Assessment rubric. They reviewed 40 Science OER repositories Group two: focused on developing an OER Poster as a tool to engage faculty and discussed ideas for professional development for librarians
- Main Challenge with Co-development of the Subject Guides = a collaborative space that would be accessible by the team/cross institutional. Content would need to be able to be used in Libguides and other web pages (WordPress) To address an immediate need for OER Primer guidesa team from the BCOER (KPU, BCIT, Douglas College) collaborated developed a set of OER Primer guides. These were available in Sept 2014. Posting links shortly on the open.bccampus.ca site We’re pleased to see Dalhousie and St. FX Libraries Have reused this content in their Libguides!
- Oct 27 2014 was the day of our prof learning event for librarians “Open Education Resources: Librarians, Leadership and Opportunity” Open Education Movement world-wide, in NA and regionally, provincially Librarians & how they are getting involved in BC post sec Leadership & Advocacy for librarians Work of BCOER Librarians taking on Innovation roles – BCcampus Geography Book sprint
