    OPEN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES Advancing Widespread Adoption to Improve Instruction and Learning

    OPEN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES Advancing Widespread Adoption to Improve Instruction and Learning THE WILLIAM AND FLORA HEWLETT FOUNDATION DECEMBER 2015 OPEN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES DECEMBER 2015 The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation helps people build measurably better lives, concentrating its resources on activities in education, the environment, global development and population, performing arts, and philanthropy, as well as grants to support disadvantaged communities in the San Francisco Bay Area. The Hewlett Foundation’s Education Program makes grants to improve education by expanding the reach of openly available educational resources, improving California education policies, and by supporting “deeper learning”—a combination of the fundamental knowledge and practical basic skills all students will need to succeed. On the web: www.hewlett.org These materials were prepared as part of the Hewlett Foundation’s internal planning process and do not represent actions to be taken by Hewlett Foundation staff or by grantee staff at the Foundation’s direction. In particular, although some of the progress indicators, targets, or metrics may reflect the passage of legislation (based on input from grantees and experts in the field), the Hewlett Foundation does not lobby or earmark its funds for prohibited lobbying activities, as defined in the federal tax laws. The Foundation’s funding for policy work is limited to permissible forms of support only, such as general operating support grants that grantees can allocate at their discretion and project support grants for nonlobbying activities (e.g., public education and nonpartisan research).

    Teaching Tools—Open Educational Resources

    Open Educational Resources Elena Novak and Bridget Mulvey February 25, 2019 Cite this resource: Novak, E., & Mulvey, B. (2019). Sub-category – Open Educational Resources. Kent State University Center for Teaching and Learning. Retrieved [todaysdate] from (HYPERLINK). Introduction to Open Educational Resources (OERs) Mike Smith, Director of the Hewlett Foundation Education Program, one of the earliest supporters of Open Educational Resources (OERs), said, “At the heart of the open educational resources movement is the simple and powerful idea that the world’s knowledge is a public good and that technology in general and the World Wide Web in particular provide an extraordinary opportunity for everyone to share, use, and reuse that knowledge” (Smith & Casserly, 2006, p. 10). This quote accurately captures the major ideas associated with the OER movement – to promote a wider access to high-quality education across the globe. OER imply that a resource is available free of cost and that it grants the following four permissions free of cost, also known as the ‘the four Rs’ of OER (Wiley, 2017): ● Reuse: the content can be reused in its unaltered/verbatim form (e.g., make a backup copy of the content). ● Revise: the content can be modified, adjusted, or altered (e.g., adapt the content of an existing course or e-textbook for your students, or translate the content into another language). ● Remix: the content (in its original or revised form) can be combined with other content to create a new resource (e.g., incorporate the content into a new e-textbook). ● Redistribute: copies of the original content, the revisions, or the remixes can be shared with others (e.g., post a copy on the Web, or give a copy to students).

Many educators are simply looking for individual media elements to use within their courses, such as photos, graphics, videos, and audio, that are openly licensed in a way that freely permits education use. The information below will help you find openly licensed media elements to use within your courses. General Search Google Advanced Search Many people start out looking for OER using Google. A general search with Google returns vast amounts of resources, most of which are not openly licensed for reuse. If you want to use Google to search for openly licensed resources we recommend you use: Google Advanced Search. Scroll down in advanced search and set “usage rights” parameters to be “Free to use, share, or modify”. If you want content for commercial use be sure to select the appropriate option. Google search returns a vast array of openly licensed resources that may require extensive sifting to yield useful nuggets. The other search recommendations on this page are likely to yield more targeted results.

    Open Educational Resources: Why Libraries Are Incentivizing Open Content Creation, Curation, and Adaptation

Contact: [email protected] Open Educational Resources: Why Libraries Are Incentivizing Open Content Creation, Curation, and Adaptation Stacy Katz The movement to create, adapt, and adopt Open Educational Resources (OER) is challenging and changing the paradigm of academic libraries. Libraries are utilizing precious time and resources to incentivize faculty to replace textbooks and primarily apply OERs in their place. Open Educational Resources help students save money on textbooks. They also invigorate faculty teaching, increase student achievement, and align materials with educational goals. Recent studies have suggested that OERs increase measurable retention factors, including engagement and grade performance. In a study of outcomes of those who used OER and those who did not, a statistically significant difference was found in course completion, class achievement, and enrollment intensity (Fischer et al. 2015). This chapter examines what the OER movement is, why and how libraries are leading, as well as presenting a case study on developing an OER Initiative. It’s no secret that textbook costs are prohibitively expensive for students. This is a challenge for higher education, particularly public education. The figures on textbook costs are staggering: in the past ten years, the cost of textbooks has increased by 73%.
