Professional Program in Open Education | Open Education Field Project (OPEN-9800)—Applied
Open Education Field Project, developed by veteran open education advocate and expert, Irwin DeVries (@IrwinD), offers one of two course-based opportunities to apply learning through action in the Professional Program in Open Education. This course provides an opportunity for learners to conduct a field project in an academic, workplace, or another professional or community setting. Learners will find a location, propose a topic, develop a strategy for implementation and finalize the project. Examples could include developing and delivering a session or webinar on a specific open education practice for a specific setting, as well as writing and presenting a draft policy framework to a committee or other leadership entity, developing an open pedagogy guide for teachers, or proposing a draft micro- credential process for professional certification in an industry of relevance the learners’ work or interest.
This asynchronous, online course begins in June 2023.
