OER as a Catalyst for Innovation in Higher Education
Welcome to this ENCORE+ Network Event!
Join us on 15th June at 14:00 CEST (UTC+2) / 13:00 BST
This event has ended,
you can find the video recording here.
The event will be an opportunity to discuss the results of the Encore+ Network activities of the past 3 years and to jointly reflect on how open educational resources and practices can contribute to innovate higher education.
We will discuss with experts and participants the challenges being met when innovating in Higher Education, considering the perspective of policy and decision makers, teachers, students, providers and international organisations and institutions.
With your help, and with the support of the participating experts in the event, we will define a set of recommendations to promote the role of OER as a catalyst of Innovation in Higher education in Europe. Following this event, all participants will be invited to read and comment on our White Paper.
Important Update for participants registering to the event:
During the past months we have worked on a draft White Paper on “OER as a catalyst of innovation in Higher Education”.
You can find an excerpt of its key parts here.
Before the event, we would kindly ask you to read it and share your comments and suggestions directly in this open document.
We would like to get your feedback on the approach and the content (with particular focus on the recommendations for policy makers, intended here as national policy makers).
During the integration event we will discuss the recommendations with a panel of experts and with participants.
Your contribution is key in driving the finalization of the document: we count on as many co-authors and contributors as possible to provide meaningful recommendations to policy makers for the uptake of OER in Higher Education innovation processes!
The event is scheduled for June 15 at 2 PM CEST time and will last approximately 90 minutes, stay tuned for more info and for the agenda of the event!
We look forward to seeing you there!
