Description

The foundation of scholarship is built on the free flow of information and ideas. Openness contributes to the building of informed communities, reduces barriers to learning, facilitates the elimination of social and economic disadvantage, and fosters collaboration and understanding. You may have heard about Open Pedagogy and Open Education Resources (OER), which are teaching practices and course resources that are free to access, reuse, revise, remix, and redistribute. What is Open Scholarship?” It is an emergent form of scholarship that emphasizes openness, sharing, and democratization of educational resources.

Open Scholarship has the potential to boost profiles; contribute to the advancement of knowledge; enhance open online courses; and highlight the contributions of research funders. Open Scholarship requires shifts in the ways we think about education, knowledge, learning, teaching, and research. We will present how we use Open Scholarship and discuss openness at BSU.
