Neil Morris, Dave Lewis, Rebecca Dearden & Chris Butcher Biosciences Educational Research Group & SDDU FACULTY OF BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES Embedding OERs Institutionally A case study from Leeds

Workshop outline Background to project Project  Workshop series  Case studies  Development of UoL Institutional policy Discussion & feedback

Faculty specific workshops

Case study 1: New to OERs Anatomy podcasts & screencasts In-house, supplementary resources Challenges: Costs, time, software Benefits: multiple, familiar formats Future: mobile media, apps, e-book Advice: reason, audience, planning, time Guidance: Supplement not replacement, format, uploading, location, R&R  Licence, QC

Case study 2: Some experience of OERs Academic; Support for Engineering Mathematics In-house, supplementary resources, HEA funded Challenges: understanding cc licences, no tracking of usage of published OERs (therefore hard to get recognition) Benefits: teaching resources all copyright compliant, learnt about OER through doing project, Future: Better repositories for OERs Advice: Use student interns Guidance: Learn about cc licences before starting project  Don’t publish without tracking of usage

Case study 3: Experienced practitioner Learning technologist; Plant science teaching resources In-house, supplementary resources, funded, community provided Challenges: copyright clearance of lecturer resources Benefits: great discipline specific community engagement (providing and using resources) Future: Sustainable solution for storing resources Advice: Use academic community wisely Guidance: Make sustainable repository plans at outset  don’t attempt to obtain © clearance for the community

Development of Institutional policy 1.OER steering group (academics, OER champions, SDDU, library, copyright expert, student rep) 2.Consultation with academic community, external universities, HEA / JISC 3.Draft policy circulated widely for comments 4.Produced set of recommendations to accompany policy 5.Final policy to be agreed/implemented in Autumn 2012

Discussion questions Any feedback, comments or suggestions for improvements to our Institutional policy? How we can best further support individuals in their use or creation of OERs a) within the University of Leeds b) more widely Discussion
