Mixing open learning material with ‘the Publisher’s books ‘
Kennisnet (EDRENE – May 2012)Henk Nijstad, Kennisnet
Experiments on mixingMixing open resources– Commercial and not-commercial– Small granularity–…..
With publisher’s books– or ‘open’ learning lines

Leo asked last time, in Poitiers:

What’s the business case,
Henk!Who wants
this?
Teacher Wants to vary on the publisher’s books F.e. for slow or fast students Extra tests, extra theory, extra
assessments Or he dislikes certain paragraphs of ‘the
books’ , or finds them not good enough
ES SIG wg 01-03-2012
Repository / Open learning materials Without curriculum-connection, this
content can not be used on large scale Teachers use the publisher’s textbooks;
without connection with ‘the books’, large-volume use will be difficult
F.e. culturel heritage content; teacher-produced content like KlasCement of Wikiwijs
ES SIG wg 01-03-2012
Publishers Their clients (‘the teacher’) want to vary
on the textbooks To lower production costs– F.e. Educational videos are very
expensive in producing– Creating content aimed at individual
students (dyslexie, etc) can be very expensive
To improve, to strenghten the textbook:– There is so much nice, valuable open
content!ES SIG wg 01-03-2012
Schoolmanagement Have a huge lockin with the textbooks– Teachers are dependend
Want to have choice, to have a position to be able to negotiate– Shrinking budgets in NL– Pressure to raise quality– Increasing demand from parents
ES SIG wg 01-03-2012
We see deals growing Open content-movement in Secundary
schools with certain publishers Public broadcasting companies and the
Publishers’association

Linked Data experiments

Most important aims Automatic distractibility of metadata
Accountability–What’s being teached– Relation of paragraphs in ‘the books’
with learning standards and detailed curriculum
Enrichment– Adding extra learning objects and/or
expertise/knowledge in specific parts of the curriculum

An experiment, ingredients: A widely used Publisher’s book on
Geography (secundary school) Videos from Public broadcasting companies
(Teleblik) Creating relations between the videos and
the (paragraphs, detailed) lesson plans (domain publisher)
By doing so, automatically creating open metadata, i.e.detailed curriculum connections

Statements EDRENE
ES SIG wg 01-03-2012
Statement 1 Not a single country in Europa has
described its curriculum yet– in enough detail–Machine-processable to enable f.e.
‘semi-automatically’ addition of metadata
ES SIG wg 01-03-2012
Statement 2 A repository in which the learning objects
are not connected in detail to some kind of learning line or textbook, is useless for teacher’s use in big numbers
ES SIG wg 01-03-2012
Statement 3 90%+ of the teachers need some kind of
learning line or ‘backbone’ (textbook).
In the little time he has available to search for extra learning objects, he needs this learning line or textbook as a starting point
