The Impact of OER on Teaching and Learning Practice | Weller | Open Praxis

The Impact of OER on Teaching and Learning Practice

 

The OER Research Hub has been investigating the impact of OER, using eleven hypotheses, and a mixed methods approach to establish an evidence base. This paper explores the findings relating to teaching and learning. The findings reveal a set of direct impacts, including an increase in factors relating to student performance, increased reflection on the part of educators, and the use of OER to trial and supplement formal study. There are also indirect impacts, whose benefits will be seen after several iterations. These include the wide scale reporting of adaptation, and the increase in sharing and open practice that results from OER usage.

What Will Happen to ‘Big Data’ In Education? | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Yesterday, a $100 million startup lost its last customer. According to a Politico article, the state of New York, InBloom‘s last remaining client, will delete all student data on the repository due to privacy concerns.

InBloom’s company spokesperson told Politico the nonprofit was “pushing forward with our mission,” though at the moment there are no known state partners.

Using data mining to analyze students data appears to be smart. Unfortunately, parents and education activists do not really agree with the use of the student's data that are collected, and sometimes sold to private companies or hacked.
