K-12/Primary & Secondary

Hello Kristina and others interested in K-12 (primary & secondary) education. I am an Associate Professor at Athabasca University (Canada) and I study and teach about OER and open pedagogy. I have had several small grants to nurture OER awareness and readiness in K-12 teachers - as far as I can tell, we have lots to learn about how to support OER and openness in education for in-service and pre-service teachers, and the administrators (right to the top levels of government) about the benefits and cautions of OER and open pedagogy. I have a website where I share out my OER for teacher education and the podcasts and videos about OER awareness are openly licensed. (http://bolt.athabascau.ca/index.php/oer/multiply-k-12-alberta-oer-project/). There are also further resources that you might find interesting located here: http://bolt.athabascau.ca/index.php/oer-projects/teacher-as-student/. I hoe to catch up with you in the synchronous meetup!

As a Director of Open Education Global, I am wanting to know your perspectives about how OEG can grow and support a K-12 OER/OEP network. Please add your ideas here or bring them to the synchronous session!

Cheers,
Connie
