OER as Content / OER as Pedagogy: Empowering Students as Partners in Learning Using Scholarly Open Educational Resources Loex May 4, 2012 Digital creativity, “is the life our kids push for. They demand it … We can't kill this instinct for creativity …We can't make them passive again …” Lawrence Lessig The Medrano Project Team: Sheila Afnan-Manns Reyes Medrano Kandice Mickelsen

“Living Textbook” Activity:  Review your SOURCE  Look for the KEYWORD  Locate your CHAPTER Post-it  Meet & Create  Finish with a Headline  Report Out!  Share – A Couple of Headlines  Describe: Engagement w/the Process

Background  OER Experts: Library created a buzz by embracing OER with a unique professional spin: OneClick Digital © : The technical and intellectual act of blending proprietary and open scholarly resources in ways that meet official course competencies, are copyright compliant, and feel free to the end user.  OER as Content: In Spring 2010 PVCC Business Division asked Library for help to replace an expensive textbook.  OER as Pedagogy: Soon realized that with a little information literacy, students could curate their own living textbook!

Classroom Nuts & Bolts  Students as curators of digital scholarly content: IBS101 unleashed a paradigm shift in which students responded to course lectures not with rote memory, but as curators who by researching, evaluating, and mixing relevant digital content created a “living textbook.”  Students as peer teachers: In addition, students became peer teachers by presenting their content under the excellent guidance of their instructor.  Students as public speakers and team builders: Lastly, students gained “real world” skills in digital research, public speaking, working in teams, and more.

Librarian’s role  Technology infrastructure: Blackboard based wikis  Team schedule: Lecture, search, create, present, follow up  Information literacy instruction: harvest keywords and concepts from lectures, evaluate, use ethically, ezproxy and persistent links  Research Guide with Library and OER resources  Support inside and outside of the classroom  Survey to measure impact

Findings  100% strongly agree or agree that collaboration between Faculty enhanced their learning experience.  100% strongly agree that instructors promoted learning that is interactive, hands-on and pertinent to class content.  100% strongly agree or agree that instructors encouraged critical thinking and problem solving. With 91% expressing better competence in critical thinking, research and presentation skills.  76% strongly agree or agree that research instruction provided by the librarians assisted their participation in creating the “living textbook ”.

Findings  95% express better competence in interpersonal communication skills and group interaction.  91% believe peer instruction enhanced their learning.  95% found content for this course more engaging than a traditional textbook.  90% believe the “living textbook” created by the students better facilitated learning.  100% believe the “no cost” for a textbook feature was an added bonus.  62% have found textbook costs to be an academic barrier.  96% believe that a “textbook free” college would encourage them to take more classes at that site.

Findings  Professor Medrano is the best teacher I have ever had – The innovation of the course and this type of thinking is the reason I go to PVCC.  Saved money not having to buy a textbook – Epic !  This course is amazing! Love the interactive learning, working with classmates and Professor Medrano’s instruction and viewpoint!  Since this course is about current business affairs, it makes more sense to do it this way. If we had a textbook it would be outdated by the time we started, I’ve enjoyed this class.  I would like to give credit to two of our librarians … who did an awesome amount of work to get this off the ground. Without their help and humor, this class would not have been possible. I just wanted to let you know how much of a difference they made in showing us how to do the research and putting together our Wiki pages.

The Medrano!  My Experience...  Collaboration w/Library Faculty  Student Engagement  Disruptive Pedagogy  Paradigm Shift
