Journal for Multicultural Education Special Issue: The Intersections of Open Educational Practices and Equity Pedagogy

[cogdog]

I literally stumbled upon this goldmine of an issue that hopefully is of interest here. The current issue of the Journal for Multicultural Education is on the topic of The Intersections of Open Educational Practices and Equity Pedagogy and is co-edited by OEGlobal members from Lehman College Stacy Katz @skatz and Jennifer Van Allen @jennifer.vanallen

In this special issue, The Intersections of Open Educational Practices and Equity Pedagogy , we seek to further the discussion with a focus on pedagogical considerations and practical applications of equitable OEP, adding to the current dialogue and critical questions posed by scholars around the world.

Stacy and Jennifer appear on a podcast introducing this issue:

Open is a verb: a discussion about open education and equity pedagogy

As explained in their opening paper, this entire issue is available openly with some grant support from the Hewlett Foundation. So all of these papers are openly available (curiously without a license mentioned):

Yes, this is a fantastic piece of work. I love that there are a few different angles on open being investigated here.

This is interesting and good luck to all those who are working on this piece. I will keep watching this thread for more details.
