as a starting point …
let’s think about our own philosophy
for education

this means take a Needs Analysis at the outsetand continuously throughout the coursesince learning is supposed to change their minds

your lesson starts in the student’s mind

learning for the love of learning
how can we do this in OER and in MOOC ??
especially since in MOOC we worry about the
extrinsic motivations : low cost and for credit
philosophy
Open Education Networkhttp :// www . open - ed. net
i ‘ start from where the student is ’
(a) outside the OER
we need good metadata tagging
for discoverability
(b) inside the OER
we could use mathemagenic questions
and perhaps ask the student to input
own content for the learning task
suggestions
Open Education Networkhttp :// www . open - ed. net
mathemagenic questions
are used to bring in prior knowledge
and as comprehension self-assessment
( to elicit misunderstanding and initiate cognitive curiosity )
certainly better than True / False
and closed multiple-choice pop quizes
summary
Open Education Networkhttp :// www . open - ed. net
i ‘ start from where the student is ’
also means the author’s voice or text
takes the student’s perspective
not “ Further increase in cold weather …”
but “ The temperature today will increase …”

concerning philosophy / ways for teaching :
Georgia Institute of Technology

- “ How can we turn our pedagogical
preferences into practice ? ”

OER quality :
each OER must be stand-alone & self-contained
but students want and need learning pathways
connecting this OER to prior knowledge, to other
OER for depth and enriching content, and to
future OER, and to skills for employability
