KPU | Introducing the Professional Program in Open Education

Professional Program in Open Education | Open Educational Technologies (OPEN-9400)—Elective

Learners will have the option to choose from two of three elective courses in the Professional Program in Open Education. Open Educational Technologies, developed by Clint LaLonde, Anne-Marie Scott, and Brian Lamb (@clintlalonde, @ammienoot, @brlamb) provides a view into some of the technologies used in open education and how they support open pedagogies. Learners obtain an overview of some of the main tools and learning environments available, as well as their challenges and administrative requirements. Ethical and legal aspects are investigated, including current issues in education involving such technologies as facial recognition, surveillance, privacy, and ethical use of learning analytics. Options for managing and scaling open digital learning environments and tools, as well as options for inter-institutional collaboration, are also explored in this course.

This asynchronous, online course begins in February 2023.
