From my adventures in #OpenScience and #OpenPedagogy: I always thought the importance of #OpenAccess was that people can read the paper and access the data, so sharing a version of record or a postprint of a paywalled paper would do the job. Only when I started preparing #OERs I realized the importance of licensing: being able to re-use figures, datasets, code from publications. In #sedmentology ans #geoscience #OpenAccess is a sore minority. I can access the most important papers from my field, but I cannot share my teaching based on them.

Fortunately my former supervisor agreed to license his thin section collection with a #CreativeCommons license, so I am gradually adding them here commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cat (more to come).

FWIW I've also learned that @GIMP is great for editing #metadata but Mastodon web interface does not read it from the image.

Scan of a thin section. Rudstone with foraminifers, green algae, red algae and coral fragments. Beach in the Bahamas. Exact locality unknown. Modern sediment.

Do you know GOOD #OERs in natural science? I know great #OER books such as those by @matherion but I'm not ready to make a book ;-) I want to make a module for an undergrad course in #geoscience #paleontology. And I find examples of not great #OERs, basically someone's assignment instruction uploaded as a pdf. I'd like to do better but not re-invent the wheel. What does it take to make a good #OER for a single practical? #openscience @academicchatter

Looking forward to presenting this morning at the #UKSGseminar on Open Educational Resources

I'll be talking about @EOSC_synergy experiences in #openscience #OERs

@drcpennington I have it and it’s a terrific resource - a great fit for my fourth-year Methods class, except that I am committed to only requiring #OERs as texts. I will make it a recommended text.

It might be time for a broad (and thoughtful) conversation on the limits of openness, in the #OpenEcosystem? How do #OpenGovernment and #OpenData work within the #FreeSoftware framework? Do #OERs run the risk of promoting #fauxpen and #OpenWashing?

Just learnt about a bilingual (ES/FR) association working towards #DecolonizingKnowledge.

noircirwikipedia.org/fr/accuei

Sounds like they're active in the French-speaking part of Switzerland as well as in Guyana.
People in #OpenEducation who care about #EpistemicJustice have a role to play in making sure that diverse knowledges are learnt. When we talk about going beyond #OERs, that's part of what we mean.

@LibraryBen (And we're not even getting into the difference between #OpenAccess and #OERs with their #5Rs.) 😉

As #podcasting is having a bit of a moment in #HigherEd (at least in my network), I wonder what people think about Adobe's 2021 #ProjectShasta, which leveraged #PracticalAI to ease #PodcastProduction.
The technology could really help in the creation of audio-based #OERs, as @cogdog might find out. Too bad it's a closed tool!

Could make for an #AskATP segment @atpfm, especially since @marcoarment has been exploring diverse approaches to enhance #Podcast recording. labs.adobe.com/projects/shasta

Thanks @cogdog for introducing all of us @oeglobal to the #EpistemicJustice work @whoseknowledge.

As someone whose knowledge is widely represented, I feel like I'm listening in a very important conversation about concrete action which will have a deeply positive impact on our work in #OpenEducation. Whether it's about revising #OERs or fighting #HiddenCurricula.

Centring marginalized voices may not always produce harmony. It's always important.

@noemu Thanks for sharing! Are you involved in similar work? How did you find out about these toolsets?

As they include games, they're particularly relevant to our team. As it so happens, we're doing lab sessions in both English and French on #Ludopedagogy.
eductive.ca/en/labs/ludopedago

The next one (in French) will be on prototyping games. The third one will be on games as #OERs.

"Libraries in the Open ecosystem"
@nic221
There's a lot to the "Ecosystem of Open". #OpenEcosystem
From F/LOSS, #OpenData, and #OpenBadges to #OpenScience, #OpenGovernment, and #OERs, let's work through a whole system of complex interrelations. Yes, that includes activities @weareopencoop & @openedtech.social. Also, #InfoPros (librarians et al.).
#LOUDGLAM is a neat example: Linked Open Usable Data in Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums.

I briefly shared an out of date call to action. After a bit more reading I found this OER at TRU that let me know:

"On June 20, 2017, SSN and allies celebrated the designation of Pípsell as a Secwépemc Nation cultural heritage site. "
