Study on Assessment Criteria for Media Literacy Levels
The objective of this study was to analyse the most appropriate criteria for the assessment of media literacy levels and provide the Commission with a set of such criteria.
Digital Age Assessment: Assessing Web 2.0 Learning
"This presentations contains many "rubrics" to assess academic and 21st century skills in Web 2.0 -based learning. The rubrics go beyond assessing the mechanics of Web 2.0 to measuring content learning. "
New Tools for Personal Learning
"In this presentation Stephen Downes describes how new technologies are being designed in order to adapt to a rapidly changing and complex world. In this picture, learning is not a matter of knowledge acquisition and memorization, but rather, personal development in such a way that we become able to navigate and work with this knowledge and content in the same manner, with the same capacities, as the expert."
The Future of Learning Institutions in a Digital Age
"Cathy Davidson and David Theo Goldberg's report, The Future of Learning Institutions in a Digital Age. The report found that students are learning in deeply collective and innovative ways, and that learning institutions - schools - have to keep up or risk obsolescence. They offer ten principles for redesigning learning institutions and pedagogical systems to better reflect the way students learn today."
Grading 2.0: Evaluation in the Digital Age
"As teaching practices evolve to include more team-based projects that involve the use of smart tools to solve problems or communicate ideas, it will become increasingly difficult to assess students in the traditional ways. Furthermore, current widely-used tests are not designed to gauge how well students apply their knowledge to new situations. "
Organizing University Learning: Moving Beyond the Course to Micro-labs
"Micro-labs may be contrasted with a normal lab, which are found at most universities. Labs are large expensive operations that might take years to set-up and are expected to run for many years. Micro-labs, by contrast, are quick to set-up and cheap to run with as few as 2-3 students and a faculty adviser who meet in the Library."
Open Educational Resources: Conversations in Cyberspace
"Open Educational Resources: Conversations in Cyberspace provides an overview of the first steps of this exciting new development: it captures the conversations between leaders of some of the first OER projects, and documents early debates on the issues that continue to challenge the movement."
UNESCO OER_Wiki
"This site was originally created by the UNESCO International Institute for Educational Planning (IIEP) as a place where members of the UNESCO OER Community can work together on questions, issues and documents."
at OER Blogs
"OER Blogs is attempting to unite the world of Open Educational Resources"
Free Learning - Educational Resources
"Here you will find FREE TO USE learning resources that you can use to supplement your own course materials or learning. Some of these are from BC-based projects while others are from Open Educational Resource projects from around the world."
Richard Baraniuk on open-source learning | Video on TED.com
"Rice University professor Richard Baraniuk explains the vision behind Connexions, his open-source, online education system. It cuts out the textbook, allowing teachers to share and modify course materials freely, anywhere in the world."
(m)ein Verständnis von OER
"Open Educational Ressources folgt einem Konzept, das zunächst im Softwarebereich entstanden ist."
The Cape Town Open Education Declaration
"Die noch junge "Open Education" Bewegung verbindet die alte Tradition Wissen und Ideen gemeinsam zu entwickeln und auszutauschen mit den neuen Möglichkeiten der Vernetzung und Interaktivität, die das Internet bietet. Sie basiert auf dem Grundprinzip, dass jeder die Freiheit haben sollte, Bildungsmaterialien zu nutzen, zu verändern, verbessern und weiterzugeben – ohne Einschränkungen."
Connexions - Sharing Knowledge and Building Communities
"Connexions is a place to view and share educational material made of small knowledge chunks called modules that can be organized as courses, books, reports, etc."
Open Learning Initiative
"Using intelligent tutoring systems, virtual laboratories, simulations, and frequent opportunities for assessment and feedback, the Open Learning Initiative (OLI) builds courses that are intended to enact instruction - or, more precisely, to enact the kind of dynamic, flexible, and responsive instruction that fosters learning."
University of the People – The world’s first tuition-free, online university
"University of the People (UoPeople) is the world’s first tuition-free, online academic institution dedicated to the global advancement and democratization of higher education. The high-quality, low-cost and global educational model embraces the worldwide presence of the Internet and dropping technology costs to bring university level studies within reach of millions of people across the world. With the support of respected academics, humanitarians and other visionaries, the UoPeople student body represents a new wave in global education."
Online Video Lectures and Course Materials — Open Yale Courses
"Open Yale Courses provides free and open access to a selection of introductory courses taught by distinguished teachers and scholars at Yale University. The aim of the project is to expand access to educational materials for all who wish to learn."
P2PU - Peer 2 Peer University
"The Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU) is an online community of open study groups for short university-level courses. Think of it as online book clubs for open educational resources. The P2PU helps you navigate the wealth of open education materials that are out there, creates small groups of motivated learners, and supports the design and facilitation of courses."
Giving Knowledge for Free: The Emergence of Open Educational Resources
"The report offers a comprehensive overview of the rapidly changing phenomenon of Open Educational Resources and the challenges it poses for higher education. It examines reasons for individuals and institutions to share resources for free, and looks at copyright issues, sustainability and business models as well as policy implications. It will be of particular interest to those involved in e-learning or strategic decision making within higher education, to researchers and to students of new technologies."
