Framework for Development of Framework for Development of OER-based Learning Materials OER-based Learning Materials



Design and Development of OER-based Course Materials

• OER-based Course Materials– TCC121/05 Programming Fundamentals with Java– TCC241/05 Database Programming

• Course Structure

• Reuse, Remix and Adaptation approach– Quality Assurance (QA), Licensing and Copyright



OER-based Course Development Cycle

• Creation Phase – Initiated by Course Development Team (CDT)– Course Syllabus, Course Development Timeline, Course Blue

Print– OER Modules Creation Session– Creative Common (CC) Licensing Session– OER Repositories Identification Session

• Evaluation Phase– Course Team Report (Academic Members, ID)– Interim Reports (External Course Assessor)

• Production Phase– Layout & Editing– Course Development Report (CDR)



OER-based Course Development Phases

Course Development Team:Course Team Coordinator, Academic Members, Course Writers, Instructional Designer, Graphics Designer, Learning and Library Services Representatives, External Course Assessor



OER-based Development Interim Reports

OER-based related production documents Course Development Team (comprises of different stakeholders for specific course)

Course Syllabus, Course Development Timeline

Course Writers, Course Team Coordinator

Course Blue Print Minutes Meeting (Course Team Coordinator, Course Writers, Academic Members, Instructional Designers)

Course Team Report ECA Reports

Course Guide Minutes Meeting (Course Team Coordinator, Course Writers, Academic Members, Instructional Designers)


Course Units write up Minutes Meeting (Course Team Coordinator, Course Writers, Academic Members, Instructional Designers, Graphics Designers, Learning and Library Services Members)


Assessments (TMAs, Examinations)

Minutes Meeting (Course Team Coordinator, Course Writers, Academic Members, Instructional Designers)


Completed Course Units (Recommendations, Actions Taken)

Final ECA Report (Final Evaluation Report)



OER Repositories Identification

• OER Repositories Identification Session– Wikibooks, CNX, Bookboon, etc– Participants (Course Development Team, Academic

Members, Authors, Instructional Designers, Editors, External Course Assessor)

• Focus on “how to develop” and usage of OER repositories

• “Step by step” OER creation and OER repositories walkthrough sessions



Collective Feedback Sessions (CFS)

Collective Feedback Sessions

OER Creation Initiative Discussion http://www.wiziq.com/online-class/645825-creation-assurance-repurpose-and-sharing-of-oer

Members attended: Coordinator, Course Writers, Library members

OER Repositories Walkthrough http://www.wiziq.com/online-class/644140-basic-guide-of-oer-and-oer-repositories

Members attended:Coordinator, Academic members, InstructionalDesigners.

Assessment Discussion and Review of feedbacks

http://www.wiziq.com/online-class/636868-java-programming-assessment-discussion

Members attended:Coordinator, Course Writers

Exploring Open Educational Resources – Review of Assessments

http://www.wiziq.com/online-class/640403-review-of-assessments-ipohro-student

Members attended:Coordinator, students

OER Collective Feedback Session http://www.wiziq.com/online-class/647666-oer-creation-cars-collective-feedback-session

Members attended:Coordinator, Academic members, Library members,Instructional Designers, Students

Usage of tools in CFS:•WizIQ video conferencing•Desktop Sharing•OER creation portal (CNX, EducaNext, OERwiki, etc)

•Demonstrate creation and collaboration•Rapidly build and share custom collections•Find and explore content

•online textbooks

•projects and examples

•image galleries

•streaming multimedia content

OER-LOs Approach•SCORM compliant, IMS compatibility

•Interoperatability (moodle-based platform)



OER-based Course Development Initiative

• Reduce course development timeline – (Development duration: 12 months) vs (Development duration 18 months)

• Reduce cost of copyright licensing• Increase Openness of OER via 4 R’s approach

(Reuse, Revise, Remix and Redistribute)

Hilton, J., Wiley, D., Stein, J., and Johnson, A. (2010) “The four R’s of openness and ALMS Analysis: Frameworks for Open Educational Resources.” Open Learning: The Journal of Open and Distance Learning. 25 (1): 37-44. (Taylor & Francis Version, Open-Repository Version).



Recommendations

• “The CFS held was useful towards creation of OER content” Dr Wong Li Pei, School of Computer Science, USM

• “I believe the external materials such as Wikibooks articles should be useful for learners.” Prof Andrew Lui, OUHK

• “I personally think that even though these views and discussions which are shared in CFS may differ with one another, it may also be useful to others in a particular problem-solving or researches.” Nadiatul Akmal, Wawasan Open University

• “I would like share what I had learned in my institution by participating in creation of OER materials. However, I would request the organisation to organize the workshop of the project”, Lim Chee Keong, Wawasan Open University



Conclusion

• Development of OER-based learning materials via virtual learning sessions– Collective Feedback Session– OER Module Creation Session– CC Licensing Session– OER Repositories Identification Session

• Creation, Evaluation, Production phases• Re-usable OER Learning Objects (LOs)• OPAL Best Practice
