4. LRMI What on earth could justify another attempt at educational metadata?

5. METADATA

6. Open Education A new world order?

7. Teaching Experiments Teaching Machines MOOCs have been (and continue to be) a lot of fun but it has been incredibly fast! Now we need some slow time to mull over lessons learned as as

8. Is there a Business model for MOOCs? A Research focused university Space to play, money is not an issue A Teaching focused university Freemium? Re-bundling? Need to make money A New market entrant NEETS, meeting unmet needs, who pays???

9. Open Knowledge Wikipedia and Beyond

10. Open Knowledge Wikipedia & beyond Brian and Simon with three other noble participants Brian explained a lot about Wikipedia Simon focused on questions of culture/governance lWikipedia: five pillars - the fourth in particular Wide and free-ranging discussion covering the interests of the participants fired my enthusiasm for the whole thing

12. Web services or cloud, open source or outsourced?

13. Web Services or Cloud, Open Source or Outsourced? Whatever.

14. eBooks The learning platform of the future?

15. Requirements on e-textbooks What does an e-texbook need to do over and above an ebook? Characteristics Online testing Offline testing 'unlimited' questions Reporting of results Discussion (class / world) Media Citations / quotes Gesture / interaction Highlighting text, asking for clarification Creation Making your own Creating a textbook as a learning experience / growing book Consumption Getting your own book published Convenient (distribution, transport) (Accessible/Individualisation) Curation Cheaper Longevity / Interoperability Integral / standalone Backward compatibility with EPUB2

16. Open Education From open practice to open policy

17. Many people, Many practices, One community.

18. People sustain open education not policy or practice. Practice is more powerful than policy but policy legitimises the practice. Policy can be burdensome. Unresolved issues about ownership, licensing and formats. Gap between policy and practice. Building capacity and developing staff is critical.

19. Building an accessible digital institution

20. Building an Accessible Digital Institution Facilitated by Brian Kelly with 5 participants Reflections: We need to build an digital environment which caters for the needs of people with disabilities WAI WCAG standard has high profile but is flawed Policy statement too vague (aspire to WCAG) or dont reflect reality: All resources are WCAG conformant PDFs in IRs / lecture capture WC AG inappropriate in learning (e.g. all content must be understandable) BS 8878 provides a pragmatic achievable policy / process based standard 22

21. Building an Accessible Digital Institution Challenges Do people care enough to take actions / prioritise work in this area? Is the WCAG policy statement deemed sufficient? Political Context Changes (drastic cuts) to DSA provides a political context to further work in this area Next Steps Cetis / Techdis work to provide leadership role for sector Encouragement to explore use if BS 8878 across sector (see 88 seconds video) Highlight political context (petition coming shortly) 23
