Add the topic Open Education Resources

matthiasfromm commented 8 years ago

This might be quite difficult to grasp due to it's meta-meta-character. Or rather, this will be difficult to operationalize since open science resources are open by default and therefore de-facto open educational resources (are they?)? On the other hand this project itself can be seen as OER.

On the other hand there is quite an interesting aspect here: how can the open resources in a project that is conducted according to the principles of open science, be processed/prepared/adapted/embedded in a way that they can be used as teaching materials within education?

Not sure this is true. AFAIK (and I could be very wrong of course), OER refers to things like textbooks published under open licences.

matthiasfromm commented 8 years ago

@RaoOfPhysics hm...initially it was, yes. But I think we progressed from there and be more inclusive - media and documents seem to be quite common nowadays. Don't you think?

RaoOfPhysics commented 8 years ago

Ah, I see what you mean. Apologies, I saw it as "open science" resources, rather than "open science resources", if that makes any sense.

matthiasfromm commented 8 years ago

@RaoOfPhysics Haha..don't worry....any feedback is always highly welcome since it always challenges us to think about (or rethink) our ideas!

That chapter could

give an overview of OER in general, linking to the many good resources on the topic that are already out there
describe how open science resources can serve as OER both in the sense of something more like a textbook (e.g. older materials) and of something more like an excursion (e.g. into lab notebooks that are being written to as we watch, which is one of the things that would fall under #1 )
state explicitly that the current project could serve as an OER in both senses (though the latter only while we're still on it)
