[publication] OER Certification of Individuals and Organisations in Higher Education: Implementations Worldwide #OER #OEAA

Our publication about „OER Certification of Individuals and Organisations in Higher Education: Implementations Worldwide“ got published in the Open Praxis Journal:

Abstract:
The initiative „Open Education Austria Advanced“ develops infrastructures for open educational resources (OER) in higher education. One part is the development of certification procedures to point out OER competencies of teachers in higher education and OER activities at Austrian universities. We present the results of our research on existing OER certification procedures from the German and English-speaking world. We started by searching in the OER World Map and there listed OER policies of universities worldwide and then tried to find examples for existing OER certification for people and organisations. There are several examples for certifications of persons such as in MOOCs on OER, university training on OER or the Creative Commons certification itself. We found only a few references of (partly) OER certificates for organisations. The publication then describes ambitions towards openness of the OER movement regarding possible certification procedures, namely open development, open content, open assessment and open certificates.

[publication] Distance Learning an steirischen Mittelschulen in Zeiten der COVID-19-Pandemie #covid19 #schule

Helene schrieb ihre Masterarbeit über die Bewältigung der COVID-19-Pandemie an steirische Mittelschulen speziell im Sommersemester 2020. Die wesentlichen Ergebnisse wurden nun zusammengefasst und stehen in einer Publikation nun zu Verfügung:

Zusammenfassung:
Die COVID-19-Krise führte im März 2020 zur Schließung des gesamten österreichischen Schulbetriebs, was zur Folge hatte, dass Präsenzunterricht durch Distance Learning ersetzt werden musste. Der Beitrag stellt die Ergebnisse einer Master-Thesis vor, die das Ziel verfolgte, die technische und organisatorische Umsetzung von Distance Learning während der COVID-19-Krise an den steirischen Mittelschulen im Sommersemester 2019/20 zu untersuchen. An der schriftlichen Befragung nahmen 69 steirische Mittelschulleitungen teil. Der Beitrag beschreibt die schulischen Anordnungen, die Implementierung der Schulinitiativen und das Arrangement der Tools für Lern- und Lehrszenarien. Die Ergebnisse der Befragung zeigen, dass mehr als die Hälfte der steirischen Mittelschulen im Beobachtungszeitraum im Distance Learning keinem extra dafür erstellten Konzept für dessen Durchführung folgten. Videokonferenzen wurden von vielen Schulleitungen angeordnet und E-Mails stellten das beliebteste Kommunikationsmittel dar. Online Lern- und Arbeitsplattformen wurden vermehrt eingesetzt, aber auch auf das Bereitstellen gedruckter Lernmaterialien wurde großer Wert gelegt.
