Introduction to Open Education and Creative Commons

As more educators, librarians and policy makers join the open education movement, there is a need to provide a welcoming space to discuss the core ideas of open education. This session will provide an overview of open education content (OER), practices (OEP) and policy for beginners, in the context of your own role in your own institute in promoting and implementing different scenario’s for Open Education. This is a safe space for all questions. Everyone is welcome!

Subjects to be covered are:
What is OER,
What is OEP,
What are (open) MOOC’s,
What are Creative Commons licenses and how to use them
Where to find OER for your courses.

We adopt a hands-on approach exploring and elaborating on existing cases from participants and ourselves, to make the transfer to actual change in one own organization realistic and to ensure all participants are knowledgeable about open education and ready to advocate for it.
