as a starting point …

let’s think about our own philosophy

for education

this means take a Needs Analysis at the outsetand continuously throughout the coursesince learning is supposed to change their minds

my own philosophy / ways for teaching :

i ‘ start from where the student is ’

your lesson starts in the student’s mind

so we must bring in the end-user’s

own context and local culture, and the

student’s prior knowledge …

how can we do this in OER and in MOOC ??

learning for the love of learning

how can we do this in OER and in MOOC ??

especially since in MOOC we worry about the

extrinsic motivations : low cost and for credit

i ‘ start from where the student is ’

(a) outside the OER

we need good metadata tagging

for discoverability

(b) inside the OER

we could use mathemagenic questions

and perhaps ask the student to input

own content for the learning task

suggestions

Page 12: Open Education Network http :// www. open - ed. net National Capacity Building of ODL Professionals on OER Quality --------------------------------------------------------------------------

mathemagenic questions

are used to bring in prior knowledge

and as comprehension self-assessment

( to elicit misunderstanding and initiate cognitive curiosity )

certainly better than True / False

and closed multiple-choice pop quizes

i ‘ start from where the student is ’

also means the author’s voice or text

takes the student’s perspective

not “ Further increase in cold weather …”

but “ The temperature today will increase …”

concerning philosophy / ways for teaching :

Georgia Institute of Technology

in consortium with three other institutions

are trying to tackle the critical question :

- “ How can we turn our pedagogical

preferences into practice ? ”

OER quality :

each OER must be stand-alone & self-contained

but students want and need learning pathways

connecting this OER to prior knowledge, to other

OER for depth and enriching content, and to

future OER, and to skills for employability
