In this presentation...




       We focus on procedural aspects that could be
      extrapolated from the libre software world to the
                 general educational sector.

                        (think of practices of creation
                       and dissemination of knowledge)

Libre Software and e-learning


          Main reason why developers join (and stay) in libre software
          projects is because of learning
          Actually, getting involved in a libre software project is a
          learning activity!
          Based on constructivism
          Understanding is applied to learning (remember keynote:
          knowledge, wisdom!)
          Acquired knowledge is more than hard skills
                  Programming (and debugging)!
                  But social, legal, organizational, communication and other soft
                  skills as well

Goals




          To present some learning experiences from libre software
          projects.
          To present learning experiences based on the philosophy and
          practices of libre software projects in educational settings
          To have a brief discussion about them

Related experiences


          Linux certifications
                  RedHat, SuSE, LPI...
                  Many materials
                  But in the end not very different from getting certified for any
                  other technology
          Seneca’s (Canadian College) agreement with the Mozilla
          Foundation
                  Public materials
                  ... but courses not open to outsiders
                  It is an adaptation of the traditional curriculum to new ways of
                  developing

Experiences from libre software projects




          How do libre software projects manage learning of their
          participants?
          Do they have systematic methods to enhance learning?
          Do they have specific roles to promote learning?
          ...
   Some experiences will be presented in the next slides...

Experiences beyond the libre software world




          Some organizations have tried to offer (formal and informal)
          educational activities that are
                  community-centered,
                  open to anybody
                  and transversal to institutions

          College students can perform remunerated work offered by
          participating organizations
          Organizations offer mentors (who also get paid)

openSE

          Open Educational Software Framework For Computer Science
          Engineering
          Initiative of institutions of higher education, libre software
          projects and companies in various countries of Europe and
          Africa
          Provides educational materials focused on software
          engineering as well as resources and support so that students
          can carry out their own learning within the community of libre
          software
          The novelty is that it systematically combines formal and
          informal learning in an informal and unrestricted learning
          environment.

          achievements
          Course organizers are volunteers who propose an idea and
          receive help from a group of experts and community members
          to create a comprehensive study guide, including material and
          social structure for the course
          Evaluation design in P2PU focuses on participants to assess
          and provide feedback to the work of others.

Summary


   Solutions based on the libre software philosophy:
          Learning is done in a community
          There are sometimes roles, but these are dynamic and often
          not assigned
          The learning process goes beyond the organization. No
          affiliation is required
          There is a trend towards professionalization of those in charge
          of making the community keep on learning
          There is usually no accreditation. Recognition is given
          by/inside the community

Discussion


   Will this way of learning be more frequent in
                     the future?

   How will it impact education and institutions
                (as we know them)?

                                                           ...

Conclusions



          Libre software has already had high impact on tools and
          content
          A second wave of influence could come from procedures and
          new organizational models
          Community learning, informal learning, flexible mentoring and
          learning outside the scope of institutions are some of the
          elements that should attract the attention of researchers and
          education institutions
