OPEN LEARNING: A Connectivist MOOC for Faculty Collaboratives
February 4-March 29 , 2018
Open Learning ‘18 launches February 4, 2018 … and you’re invited!
There’s a great deal of excitement in higher education around the word “open.” Open Educational Resources. Open Access. Open Pedagogical Practices. Open and Participatory Cultures. What do these terms mean, and how can they benefit your work? Good questions!
As part of Virginia’s ongoing “Faculty Collaboratives” effort, we are pleased to announce the second iteration of a free, online, and open learning experience focused on all these topics. It’s called “Open Learning ’18.” Somewhere between a course of study and an informal conversation, the experience emphasizes collegial, interactive, networked learning and sharing. Who is this for?
- Are you open to new ways of motivating student learning?
- Are you curious about open education, but haven’t really learned much about it before?
- Are you interested in new modes of scholarly communication, including how to develop a public voice?
- Do you have experience with some aspects of open education and want to learn about others?
- Are you an expert already?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, there’s a place for you at Open Learning ’18.
