Who are we?
We are human.
We are educators. We are open educators.
We are curious about education and everything it is connected to.

And today we are going to talk about human OERs (Funes, 2014).

How is OER commonly defined?
Definition #1: “digitised materials offered freely and openly for educators, students, and self-learners to use and reuse for teaching, learning and research.” (OECD, 2007)
![Page 5: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
How is OER commonly defined?
Definition #2: “OER are teaching, learning and research resources that reside in the public domain or have been released under an intellectual property license that permits their free use or re-purposing by others. Open Educational Resources include full courses, course materials, modules, textbooks, streaming videos, tests, software and any other tools, materials or techniques used to support access to knowledge.” (The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation)

A common theme across these definitions is that they all refer to the 5Rs of open education (Wiley, 2009, Wiley 2014).
• Retain • Reuse• Revise• Remix• Redistribute

What is Open Education?
![Page 9: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What is Open Education?
A focus on things not actions…A focus on content not people...A focus on materials not relationships…
![Page 10: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What are Open Educational Resources?
Content.
![Page 11: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Our Focus
![Page 12: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Because:
Education ≠ Access to content
Educational resource ≠ Educational material
“The true benefit of the academy is the interaction, the access to the debate, to the negotiation of knowledge” (Cormier & Siemens, 2010)
![Page 13: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
We propose that:
The processes and products of open scholarship can be valuable open educational resources.
We OURSELVES can be open educational resources.
Anyone can be an open educational resource.

What Is It Like to “Be” Open?
Not just to create openly but for openness to be a state of being in the
world

Open, Not Just Broadcast Publicly, But:
• Make your processes open (e.g. as you think through your teaching or thesis research, defend thesis publicly)
![Page 17: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Open, Not Just Broadcast Publicly, But:
• Be willing to change, have your ideas and your values challenged and shifted
• Be open to reevaluating your worldview when dealing with people very different from yourself
![Page 18: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Virtually Connecting as Open Practice
Do you know Virtually Connecting?In what ways is it an open practice? Or not?
![Page 19: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Virtually Connecting• Conference participants taking time out of the
onsite experience to include virtual participants who could not attend;
• (keynote) speakers taking 30 or more mins time to have a casual conversation with a small group of people - can be more valuable than what’s on the stage in front of 100s.
![Page 20: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Critical Look into “Open”
• Whose voices dominate the open? Can vulnerable populations afford to be open?
• The “open” minority voice becomes dominant?• For example, how many Arab women do you know in edtech? I know about 6 and 4 of them are called Maha :)
• Responsibility? Burden? Inevitable?
… MOST OER (material/people) are Western/Anglo and so at least you help spark the possibility of “other” and get heard because “exotic”
![Page 21: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Consequences of Open: Risk Vulnerability• Posting incomplete thoughts or raw processes -
open self to critique and possibly worse esp in academia
• Exposing own weaknesses (e.g. illness)• But all of this supports others who would not
otherwise have a window into these processes/experiences from that viewpoint
![Page 22: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Openness is a process… A process that is:
• multidimensional• shifting and evolving• contextual• influenced by our digital literacies• not always beneficial because every opening calls for “selectiveness and exclusions” (Edwards, 2015)
![Page 23: The Self as an Open Educational Resource #SelfOER](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070515/587a8aca1a28ab58288b596b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
A process that is...
• personal
The unique characteristics that make us an individual (Campbell, 2013).
