Using Open Content To Drive Educational Change | FunnyMonkey - 0 views

  • The differences between open content and traditional textbooks only begin with the production and distribution of the text. When we look at the types of teaching, learning, and assessment that become more accessible when using open content, we can start to get a clearer picture of the pedagogical rationale that makes remixable and reusable content a better choice than a traditional textbook.
  • generally, when a text is being used within a course, the structure of the text creates the structure of the course.
  • The text becomes a point of reference for the ongoing work in the class.

  • ...1 more annotation...
  • most teachers who use a textbook deviate from it. Most teachers plan lessons and curriculum that go beyond where the text ends, or that address deficiencies in the text. These lessons and activities form a shadow text that help drive quality classrooms. Yet, within the world of the traditional textbook, these improvements or options never make it back into the textbook. Many of these innovative practices never get shared with colleagues in the same building.
