During this workshop:reflect about

➢ How can e-learning and OER be useful for libraries?

➢ How can libraries help their organisation or members with e-learning and OER needs?

Student PIRGs(Public Interest Research Groups)

➢ “(US) students spend an average of $900 a year on textbooks and course materials”

➢ “Textbook prices have increased four times the rate of inflation since 1994!”

Student PIRGs(Public Interest Research Groups)

➢ “Why are textbooks so expensive?➢ Publishers undermine the used book market.➢ Publishers “bundle” textbooks with extra CDs, passcodes

and workbooks.➢ More expensive➢ Supplements expire at end of semester

➢ Publishers keep faculty in the dark about prices.➢ textbooks market is broken”

“Schools we have todaywere designed around commonsense assumptions

that had never been scientifically tested”

Our knowledge about learninghas evolved

Behaviourism Learning = change of behaviourStimulus → responseLearner is passive receiver of knowledgeMind = black box

Cognitivism Focuses on how the brain worksMetacognition, learning strategiesMotivation

Constructivism Knowledge is actively constructed by the learnerNew knowledge is linked to prior knowledgeLearners discover themselves facts and relationships

Social Constructivism Social interaction plays a fundamental role Discussions lead to deeper understanding and increased motivation

Constructionism Constructing an artifact or something that can be shared leads to better learning

Connectivism Learning is a process of connecting nodes or information sourcesKnowledge and learning may reside in non-human appliancesTry to see connections between fields, ideas, and conceptsKnow-what & Know-how → Know-where

11

information scarcity → information abundance !

Total information is now doubling every year !

Surveys

How much of the knowledge

you need for your job

is in your own head?

The longer one studies,

the more one comes to realize

how much one does not know

Evolution in E-learning?e-learning 1.0 e-learning 2.0

open source software

personal learning environment

closed source software

solitary platform integrated in ICT-environment

closed to outer world open where useful,closed where necessary

only own institution connected with other institutions

focus on technology focus on pedagogy

consumption interaction

Open educational resources (OER)

digitised materialsoffered freely and openly

for educators, students and self-learnersto use and reuse

for teaching, learning and research

Believing that OER can

widen access to quality education,

particularly when shared by many countries

and higher education institutions,

UNESCO champions OER

as a means of promoting access, equity and quality

in the spirit of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

These generic repositories in Chamilo 2.0 are nice

64

Specialized learning object repositories are nicer!

Content is King ?

67

How can wemake the bestof our content?

68

Content must be

Searchable

Accessible

Interoperable

Durable

Reusable

69

How?

70

How?

Interoperability through standards

Searchable through metadata

Stored inLearning Object Repositories (LOR)

71

The path towards standards

72

SCORM

Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM)

collection of standards and specifications for web-based e-learning

Origin: US Department of Defense

packaged into a transferable ZIP file

order in which a learner may experience content objects.

Learning Analytics

Gephi export,

learning interactions,

R. Carlos, F. Questier

84

We all can learn fromLearning Analytics!

➢ The Learning Analytics Cycle, by Doug Clow, http://dougclow.wordpress.com/2011/02/28/the-learning-analytics-cycle/

Is this ICT supported

learning paradigm shift

possible without

teacher learning/training?

86

Research studies show that

how much and how effectively

teachers integrate ICT

in their teaching process

depends mainly on their educational vision

(not age, gender, ...)

OER Barriers?

➢ Barriers for usage➢ Lack of awareness➢ Bandwith in developing countries➢ Not enough OER yet➢ Bandwith➢ Hard to localize

➢ Barriers for production➢ Teachers attitude➢ Skills➢ Copyright➢ Limitations of LMS? (licenses, access control)➢ Funding➢ Institutional policy

88

Recommendations for opennessRecommendations for opennessinfrastructureinfrastructure

➢ Implement national or institutional portals and repositories for:Implement national or institutional portals and repositories for:

➢ Free Open Source Software

➢ E-learning materials

➢ Scientific publications

➢ Research data

➢ Open up and connect your Virtual Learning EnvironmentsOpen up and connect your Virtual Learning Environments

➢ OERs

➢ Roaming for students and staff

89

Exercise

What can libraries dorelated to e-learning & OER?

One extra idea:

Integrate library andvirtual learning environment
