Peru State College Kaleidoscope Workshop
- 1. www.lumenlearning.com Peru State College Kaleidoscope Open Course Initiative Workshop ~ 7-8 May 2013 David Lippman Lumen Learning Math Lead & MyOpenMath Founder Ronda Neugebauer Lumen Learning Student Success Lead & Kaleidoscope Member
- 2. Agenda • Introductions • Why Open? • Open Educational Resources • Kaleidoscope Approach • Discussion
- 4. Education is Sharing teachers with students students with teachers
- 5. Successful Educators share most completely with the most students
- 6. If There Is No Sharing then there is no education
- 7. Interlude Riddle What can be given without being given away?
- 8. Knowledge is Magical can be given without being given away
- 9. Physical Expressions Are Not to give a book, you must give it away
- 10. When Expressions Are Digital they also become magical
- 13. Unprecedented Capacity we can share as never before
- 14. Unprecedented Capacity we can educate as never before
- 15. Except We Can’t © forbids copying, distributing, and editing
- 16. © Cancels the Possibilities of digital media and the internet
- 19. use copyright to enforce sharing
- 20. Makes It Easy to Share: 4Rs reuse - use content in its unaltered form revise - adapt, adjust, modify, improve, or alter content remix - combine original or revised content with other CC content to create something new redistribute - share copies of original content, revisions or remixes with others
- 22. What are Open Educational Resources (OER)? (1) Any kind of teaching materials – textbooks, syllabi, lesson plans, videos, readings, exams
- 23. What are Open Educational Resources (OER)? (2) Are free for anyone to access, and (3) Include free permission to engage in the 4R activities
- 24. Internet Enables Sharing and educating at unprecedented scale OER Allows
- 25. What do OER look like?
- 29. Mining OER Click the Logo
- 30. OER Common Concerns It’s too time-consuming to switch to OER. If anyone can create OER, then the quality must not be as good. Publisher materials are better. I want a cohesive set of materials – from PPTs, to practice sets, to textbooks – OER doesn’t offer this.
- 31. OER require online delivery. That’s not my teaching style. If I’m creating materials, then I should reap the financial reward, not give it away for free. If students can’t afford textbooks, then they shouldn’t be in college. OER Common Concerns
- 32. How does OER benefit students?
- 35. OER to Improve Student Success 1. Eliminate textbook cost as a barrier 2. Drive assessment-driven enhancement of course designs and materials 3. Connect to a global collaborative community to share learning and investment
- 36. Average Cost per Credit Hour One Partner’s Data $49.94 $23.05 $30.14 $70.57 $37.66$37.46 $18.46 $22.64 $52.19 $27.73 $0.00 $20.00 $40.00 $60.00 $80.00 $100.00 $120.00 Business Composition Humanities Science and Math Social Science New Used Tuition+Fees
- 37. The Direct Relationship Between Textbook Costs and Student Success 60%+ do not purchase textbooks at some point due to cost 35% take fewer courses due to textbook cost 31% choose not to register for a course due to textbook cost 23% regularly go without textbooks due to cost 14% have dropped a course due to textbook cost 10% have withdrawn from a course due to textbook cost Source: 2012 student survey by Florida Virtual Campus
- 38. The Vision 100% of students have free, digital access to all materials on Day 1 Improve student success using OER- based courses that increase affordability, broaden access, and apply continuous quality improvement to course design
- 39. Students Use OER and Assessments Improve OER + Assessment Design Assessment and Behavioral Student Data Determine OER Effectiveness Predict and Intervene with At-Risk Students ImprovOER Continuous Improvement
- 40. Open Course Framework (OCF) For each student learning outcome: 1. Complete set of open materials 2. Summative assessments 3. Formative assessments 4. Supplemental and support resources
- 41. Student Ratings of Quality of Open Texts 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 Better quality Same quality Worse quality Number of Students “It was very concise and aligned with exactly what we were working on in the class.” “Having the textbook catered to us by our teacher was perfect.” 3% 56% 41% Source: Bliss, Hilton, Wiley, Thanos (2012)
- 42. Student Preference for Kaleidoscope Courses 0 20 40 60 80 100 Prefer Kscope Prefer traditional No preference Number of Students “I enjoy having online texts provided for me because I'm poor. I spend the money I have left after rent on school, so having free online texts provided for me benefits me very much.” “GREAT WAY TO DO ONLINE CLASSES!!!!” 13% 13% 73% Source: Bliss, Hilton, Wiley, Thanos (2012)
- 43. Student Success C or Better 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 Historical Success Kaleidoscope
- 44. Kaleidoscope Phase II 1. Support new institutions in pilots of open course frameworks – Micro-pilots – Realistic evaluation of approach 2. Develop 20 additional course frameworks 3. Grow and mature the project – Project governance – Faculty leadership

- What is the same about these? (Discussion) Possible answer: color palatte, face, creativityPoint: both have full protection of copyright law, anything I create has the same protection as the most expensive movie ever created, all copyright is pervasive...what is the impact of this? the way we share, teach, edit, revise
- What is the role of Openness in Education?Education is SharingTeacher share knowledge and skills, feedback and criticism, encouragementStudents share questions, assignments, feedback
- Knowledge. Ideas are non-rivalrous. They can be given without being given away.

- Because of the Internet, my colleague and I can view the same page simultaneously with millions of other people all over the world…and practically for free.
- Not at an increase in cost, but at an increase in the ability to share.
- Digital expressions using the Internetmean we can share and thuseducate as never before…right?
- Copyright: regulates copying, distributing, editing, and adapting
- What the Internet enables, copyright forbids.We can’t share.
- Like a fundamental of Judo: take opponents’ strengths and use it against them…DAVID HERE
- Open source software community has itThere are broad global uses of CC outside of education as well(Click on hyperlink) Discuss 3 layers of licensing:Human Readable (language means I can understand it); Legal Code (legalese); Machine Readable (Google search can pick it up)Demo Advanced Google search and looking for CC logo (generally found at the bottom of webpages)Case against using CC NC for materials you create is removing the option to print materialsfor students
- Biology textbook
- Videos, interactives, simulations
- OER can be almost anything! They are materials that are free to anyone to access and include free permission to engage in 4Rs
- Click the logo to access the site. Talk about OER. Talk about projects, and how much grant money has funded the content development…but challenge in adoption. The “if you build it they will come notion doesn’t necessarily in higher education.”
- Tim OReilly - “Obscurity is a far greater threat to authors and creative artists than piracy”If Pearson did take your CCBY OER work, then they would have to attribute it to you.

- The Kaleidoscope Project, funded by a Next Generation Learning Challenges grant, began in 2011There were 8 founding institutions comprised of community colleges & open access 4-year schools from California to Nebraska to New York
- The project’s members have grown and in October 2012, the project received follow on funding again by Next Generation Learning Challenges grant.
- The project’s advisors are experts from different organizations that have experience with OER, an advisory board, as well as a Kaleidoscope Leadership Team. In the first phase of Kaleidoscope, 11 Gen Ed courses were developed, over 9,000 students participated, therequired textbook cost dropped to $0, and the average change in student success (C or better in the course)reported was +14%
- Kaleidoscope uses (OER) to improve student success. The project works by using the best of existing OER to reduce textbook costs to $0; use learning analytics analyze assessment, activity and success data to guide faculty members in continually improving the effectiveness of the open resources; supporting faculty within and across institutions to collaborate, share, and build community

- David: Recent research (conducted by the Florida Virtual Campus) quantifies the ways high textbook costs affect student persistence and success. More than 60% of students report not having purchase textbooks at some point due to the costNearly a quarter (23%) of students regularly go without textbooks due to their costDue to the high cost of textbooks:35% of students report taking fewer courses31% report not registering for a course14% have dropped a course10% have withdrawn from a courseLink to research source: http://www.openaccesstextbooks.org/pdf/2012_Exec_Sum_Student_Txtbk_Survey.pdf
- Kaleidoscopeprojects are giving students 100% free, digital access to all materials on the first day of the course. With this step alone, institutions have already boosted student success and retention simply by taking textbook costs out of the equation. If that is the day 1 impact of OER, just think about the other ways we can move the needle on student success by designing, adopting, measuring success and improving OER-based courses.
- ImprovOER: students use materials, analyze the results, and informs improvements
